Message: [QUOTE="f1f1ferrari, post: 4536139, member: 6086"] Sorry, Nan, but I have to totally disagree with you on this one. I always follow the stats while listening to the radio feed, and I can tell you the 1st quarter stats were a disaster from the start. Aaliyah's turnover to start the game was initially credited to Georgetown's #3, Victoria Rivera, while Graceann Bennet's subsequent missed jumper and soon-after rebound were credited to Caroline Ducharme! Neither Rivera or Ducharme even played in the game. It took until the 3rd quarter before those were fixed. Also, when the media timeout was called with 4:25 reamaining in the 1st, the stats feed showed 5:55 remaining. Less than a minute later this was corrected to 4:25, but if you look at the published play-by-play, at 5:55 remaining there was a foul called on Jada Claude, and the next entry is a missed free throw by Aaliyah at 4:25 remaining! Where'd that 1½ minutes go?!? There were also quite a few things mentioned by Bob Joyce on the radio that never showed up on the stats. The stat-keeping was much better in quarters 2-4, and there is no doubt that the final score was accurate and unaffected by the errors, but this was the worst I've ever seen from scorekeepers, and I am well convinced that the final stats, especially for the 1st quarter are still incorrect.
