There was one problem: Stanford's Francesca Belibi matched Janssen and blocked the shot.
Belibi took it the length of the court and threw down a dunk at the other end, extending Stanford's lead to 31-6.
Candace Parker of Tennessee was the first to record a dunk in the NCAA women's basketball tournament. On March 19, 2006, Parker took it the length of the court and threw a dunk down on Army.
