During the first half the Toppers grabbed eight more boards than the U. and for the game finished with a 50 to 33 advantage. "As far as I'm concerned, that's where the game was lost," Elliott said. "We knew rebounding would be the key to the game and it was. They were just too dominant in that area." For the record, the Toppers had 15 more offensive rebounds than Utah. Leading the way rebounding for the centers, , t Toppers were a couple of 39-3- 7, 1987 Michelle Clark and Traci Patton.
