Brittney Griner who first caught our eyes when she posted youtube videos of herself dunking in her highschool gym. Goes at it again the 6'8' freshman from Baylor has changed womens basketball for the best. A player like Griner brings fans and viewers too tv stations all over the world . Everyone tunes in too see the great freshman Griner block and stand over opponents. She has changed a game that is usually dominated by The "Great" UCONN. Griner has been leading Baylor all season. She has hit a few rough patches on her way to stardom but she definetly is no fluke and she is hear to stay. Recently Griner was ejected from a game for punching Texas Tech player Jordan Barncastle in the face. Griner threw the punch after Barncastle got tangled up with her. A foulwas called against Barncastle, while Griner was only suspended for a total of two games. Lady Bears coach Kim Mulkeysaid late on March 4 that Griner would only be suspended for one game, in addition to a one-game suspension mandated by NCAArules. The vicious punch thrown by Griner broke Barncastle's nose. She caught a lot of flack for whats he did but it totally was not her fault she got caught up in the game and her emotions got the best of her. But her play in this NCAA tournament have made us forget about what happened and if she doesn't have anymore problems Griner might just be one of the best womens college basketball players ever.
