WNBA playoffs feature Rutgers alumni
The Rutgers women’s basketball team's season has yet to start, but the WNBA playoffs included four Scarlet Knight alumni these past couple weeks competing for the championship.
A single-elimination game started off the first playoff round with two former Rutgers players going head-to-head. One of them was guard Essence Carson, playing with seventh-seeded Connecticut.
Alumna guard Kahleah Copper and her team, sixth-seeded Chicago, were the opponent. The game ended with a 94-81 final score, giving the Sun a win.
Former Knight center Kia Vaughn and fifth-seeded Phoenix lost against fourth-seeded Minnesota by 1 point in the second playoff round.
