Oklahoma Women Beat Tennessee!

From ESPN...

OKLAHOMA CITY -- Pat Summitt's 1,000th win will have to wait at least another game.

Courtney Paris' record 112-game double-double streak came to an end, but Whitney Hand matched her career high with 20 points to help No. 2 Oklahoma beat Tennessee (No. 15 ESPN/USA Today, No. 12 AP) 80-70 on Monday night for the Sooners' 15th straight victory.

Summitt was denied in her first attempt at reaching the coaching milestone. She'll get another chance on Thursday when the Lady Vols host Georgia."I'm not concerned about a number for me," Summitt said. "I'm concerned about this basketball team investing in our system and not picking and choosing when they want to play hard."Paris had nine points and 12 rebounds and got a standing ovation when she fouled out with 38.2 seconds left. She walked to the bench with both arms raised and wiped away tears as she waved to a standing crowd before taking a seat on the Sooners' bench."It was going to end sometime," Oklahoma coach Sherri Coale said. "My immediate thought was good for her. She doesn't have to carry it around anymore."
