Up close and personal

When the Final Four teams arrived in San Antonio, they were greeted by mariachi bands and given baskets of cascarones (decorated egg shells filled with confetti).

The San Antonio Express-News has this slide show of the Final Four arrival.

Journalists are keeping busy before the games begin writing stories about some of our favorite people.

Mechelle Voepel (ESPN) writes about Nneka's growth this season in Ogwumike learns to count on instincts.

Michelle Smith (Left Coast Hoops) writes about Ros' progress since the Cardinal last played Oklahoma five years ago ... and a bit about Jayne's fingernails in Gold-Onwude, Jayne’s nails…notebook clean-out.

Mark Whicker (Orange County Register) gives a historical perspective on Jeanette's 4.4 second dash in Pohlen blasted to past in 4.4 seconds.
