Admit it. You woke up at an ungodly hour this morning to watch the Red Sox play the MLB season opener in Japan.

If you're still awake this evening, you'll get to watch another New England product on the tube.

Brunswick's Joanne P. McCallie - AKA Coach P - and the Duke women's basketball team face Arizona State at 7 p.m. on the ESPN networks - 1, 2, U, 360 - in a second-round game in College Park, Md.

Meanwhile, former McAuley standout Ashley Cimino got to witness greatness Monday night in California. Candice Wiggins – Cimino's teammate at Stanford – tied a school record by scoring 44 points Monday in the Cardinal's 88-54 second-round win over UTEP.

Stanford faces Pittsburgh in a regional semifinal Saturday in Spokane, Wash.
