Four players, including former Biddeford High standout Emily Rousseau, have left the women's basketball team at the University of Maine after a 7-23 season under first-year coach Cindy Blodgett.
Sophomore center Sandra Vaitkute and Rousseau, a freshman point guard, plan to transfer. Junior guard Brittany Bowen will remain at Maine as a student. The fourth player, freshman forward Magdala Johnson, has not indicated whether she plans to transfer.
It is unclear what led to the decision for Rousseau, who averaged 28.4 minutes and 8.1 points a game. Blodgett, while an assistant coach at Brown last year, recruited Rousseau, who earned America East rookie of the week honors in two consecutive weeks in January.
Really there isn't much else to say about any of Maine's sports. Every sport is becoming the laughing stock of America East...which is pathetic.

it would be interesting to know why they're leaving. the press has been very tight-lipped about this. is it because of cindy? because their team stunk this year? i guess only time will tell.
