The in studio coverage commentators are Elle Duncan, joined by analysts Rebecca Lobo, Carolyn Peck and Nikki Fargas. They are very nicely dressed in solid colors. Ms. Duncan, an ESPN Sports anchor, is wearing a v-neck bright blue dress, wrap style earrings  and simple silver chain necklace necklace.  Ms. Lobo, a former UConn team member, WNBA players and now a women’s basketball analyst, is wearing a purple jump suit. Ms. Peck former coach of Purdue’s women’s team has donned a square neck red dress., a sapphire and diamond pendants on a gold chain pendant. Former Tennessee player and former head coach for UCLA and LSU, is wearing a powder blue pants suit with a matching camisole, The clunky, cheap looking plastic necklaces have passed out of fashion along with the animal print dresses and scarves. Thank the fashion Goddess.

Big loss for UConn and Gino Auriemma. First time in its history that the women have lost a title game. Next year.
