Oklahoma Advances over Georgia Tech

Georgia Tech played #1 seed Oklahoma tough for most of the game, but was no match for the Sooners falling 69-50. Oklahoma moves on in the Oklahoma regional and will most likely advance to St. Louis and the final four.
Close to 1,500 showed up for the 2nd round contest in a site where host Iowa fell victim to the Yellow Jackets on Sunday night. There were many concerns of the attendance, but Oklahoma was well represented as well as Iowa fans who came to support women's college basketball.
Having two other teams play allowed for different customs, traditions and songs in Carver Hawkeye Arena. Shown here is an example of the difference between Iowa Basketball and what would be found at schools such as this one in Atlanta. The Georgia Tech Gold Rush performed at half time to AC/DC's "Shook Me All Night Long." Songs and routines such as this most likely would not be acceptable in Carver Hawkeye Arena.
