Brittney Griner Ejected, Baylor Women’s star center Brittney Griner, quickly becoming popular for her dunks on female opponents, put together another impressive performance on Monday night before being ejected in the closing seconds of her team’s 77-58 victory over Tennessee.

During the final minute of Baylor’s comfortable win which secured their spot in the NCAA Women’s Final Four, Odyssey Sims, who led the Bears with 27 points, tumbled to the floor with the Volunteer’s Shekinna Stricklen and the two had to be separated.

“I’m not that type of person. I don’t fight on the court, said Stricklen after the game. “I did trip, and it looked like I was trying to push her and she just took in the wrong way and we had a little talking back and forth. I’m actually cool with Odyssey.”

Sims similarly downplayed the incident, saying: “Just got caught in the heat of the moment. Everything’s fine now.”
