Elimination rates a Headline?

Only the (UC)LA Times would give a "top of the page" headline to the eliminated UCLA Lady Bruins Softball Team, while giving a smaller "mid-page" headline to the NCAA CHAMPION USC Men's Tennis Team.

Today's "UCLA is eliminated in softball" headline is TWICE as large and is the LEAD headline of the "The Day in Sports" page, as compared to the smaller headline on Wednesday, 5/20/09 that the USC Men received in winning its 17th NCAA Tennis Team title.

Will the UCLA bias over USC ever end?
