The women's basketball team bounced back from being smashed by Notre Dame in a 77-68 upset of TCU in Cancun, Mexico. TCU, #22 in the country, burst on to the scene by beating Maryland earlier this season.
Mickel Picco led BC with 23 points.
This is very pleasant (and, admittedly, surprising) news :) Congrats BCWBB!
