Okay, so I'm still pissed as hell about Texas women getting DQed from the 4x1 over the tennis ball incident. And then karma comes back to bite Pat Henry in butt.
Yes, it was Henry who filed the protest over the tennis ball halves that got UTexas DQed. Which tossed UT (and its projected 8 points) out of the final. But it allowed UCLA (which had missed qualifying by .006 seconds) back in. And the Bruins placed second (instead of fifth as T&FN had originally projected, and instead of the zero they would have gotten if they failed to qualify). So instead of a projected point total of LSU 63, UCLA 61, my best friend Bret pointed out that now it is UCLA 65, LSU 63.
All of this may now be moot -- my calculations don't take into account the 100H results -- but man, I am going to dance a little happy dance if Pat Henry's protest screwed him out of a title. Go Bruins!
