The Belated Award for Good Sportswomanship. . .

. . . goes to Rutgers basketball. They were scheduled to play the title game of the women's U.S. Virgin Islands Paradise Jam in late November against Arizona State. Sadly, the brother of an Arizona State player, there to watch the game, died suddenly. Rather than force Arizona State to show up or forfeit if they didn't show up, Rutgers agreed to cancel the game.
