FWIW, connected to the first question:

This past winter, the Canadian Women's National Hockey team (the best in the world for a long time) got drubbed by some midget boys teams (15-, 16-, 17-year-old age group) in exhibition matches. Not all-star midget teams, just top AAA city midget league clubs.

Are their really D-3 teams with no one taller than 6-1? I can't imagine it's that hard to find a couple of 6-6 "projects" as walk-ons.

I remember a school that had lost something like 200 straight before winning last year. Cal Poly Tech maybe was the name?

There are quite a few schools like that...they're insanely hard academic schools that force all students to play one sport. Most of their athletes would probably get cut from the local HS team. I think they were DIII, and no I don't think they had anyone over 6ft 1in, but I could be wrong there.

cal tech, the world renowned institute.

Everyone is forgetting the fact that women literally have to stop to shoot anything further than 15 feet. Stop. Both feet planted. At our Rec Center I could get 5 guys that could beat any WNBA team.
