1641583583902199808 | Women's Final Four tickets are more expensive than men's this year. 💰 @baller2reporter and @maggiehendricks consider what's driving the growth in women's college hoops. #MarchMadness https://t.co/aMry0q0bRN | 2 |
1638577526447435777 | So many guards shined, and even hit game-winning shots in the first two rounds of the women's NCAA tournament, but @maggiehendricks and @baller2reporter highlight two that impressed them the most over the weekend. #marchmadness https://t.co/s4UJmMfwlZ | 2 |

1641511795683647490 | @maggiehendricks @robertloerzel Hoping they’ll be taking an L on Tuesday. | 24 |
1640182263672348673 | @maggiehendricks The anger comes from the blindness of the argument and discussion. Boston was the 19th leading scorer in…her conference. It is nonsense to compare the two. Talking heads make these inane points just to have a discussion. If someone thinks Clark isn’t POY they are, in fact, blind | 21 |
