I think someone posted an article about those two twin towers for American. I'm certainly too lazy to look it up.

It wasn't surprising that Cal won. What was surprising was how Cal systematically won point after point! 30-17, 30-18, 30-19. Pepp seemed paralyzed....a deer in the headlights. Not the same team we saw in Malibu playing Texas last week! Cal seemed balanced, quick and has lots of weapons. Not that Cal isn't tall but...is this the classic case of speed over height?

I think someone posted an article about those two twin towers for American. I'm certainly too lazy to look it up. Here's the other twin. I found myself talking to their family members in the crowd. Apparently they're taller than either of their parents, although their brother (also in the crowd) is taller than the twins.

This is the tallest Cal lineup I've ever seen except for Angie Pressey. If you go by the "official" roster sheet, Morgan Beck, Hana Cutura, Ellen Orchard, and Natalie Smart are all listed as being 6'3". Sam Carter is listed as 6'0". Pepperdine isn't that much bigger, but I'd say the Cal front line was easily more athletic. |

One of them was so much taller than her teammates that she had to bend her arms in the pregame huddle. Here's both of them together on the court at the same time.  |
