Another interesting thing I found about this game.  Young came into the game with a growing reputation of athleticism and someone willing to crash the boards.  ND plays a lot of 3 guard sets.  When she walked on the court she faced Kia who is taller, broader, not as athletic, and faster.  Young immediately had problems.  On occasion she was matched up against Lou, and Lou just posted her up on offense and her long arms kept her at bay on defense.  When UConn went with three guards in the fourth her mark was Meg, who is bigger, stronger, faster and more athletic.  On a few rebounds in the 4th Young attempted to box out Meg and Meg either blasted through her or out jumped her.  Anyone notice that Meg has long arms and large hands?  So Young throughout the game had issues with UConn's length and athleticism.  If and when these teams meet again, that ain't gonna change, and I'm including next year when Meg presumably will move into the 2/wing spot.  Young is a fine young player who clearly will feast on lesser opponents and teams.  Not however against UConn, unless she has a night where everything she throws up hits the bottom of the net.
