STOCKTON, Calif. -- Ivey Slaughter stands corrected. And she will probably continue to stand there for the next couple of days.
Sitting in front of a microphone after her game-changing performance Saturday in the Sweet 16 against Oregon State, an 11-point, eight-rebound, nine-steal effort that led the Seminoles to a 66-53 comeback win over the Beavers at Stockton Arena, she tried to demur.
The senior forward tried to say that she isn't the best defensive player on the Florida State team. But teammate Leticia Romero and coach Sue Semrau weren't having it, cutting her off before she could finish the thought.
