Duke Women are 12-1!

The women's team continues to roll,
this time defeating Georgetown a
nd matching the all-time best start for Duke
women's basketball at 12-1. Not bad for a team supposedly
"rebuilding."

Ok, Time for a DBR salute!

We know she doesn't get as much PR as some of her other teammates, but if
Lauren Rice's game were a living, breathing entity, we'd run off with it in a
heartbeat and spend eternity playing one on one. She has an absolutely
gorgeous game. If you ever get sick of the slamdunks and
self-promotion which periodically overwhelms men's hoop at almost every level,
slip off sometime and watch her for a while. She'll restore your faith in the
game. Not only that, she plays a lot of the time with a bemused sort of a smile,
which is really cool.
