Schools Have Both Their Men’s and Women’s Teams in the NCAA Tournament
Hampton shot 30 percent and Notre Dame 42 percent in a game that featured 104 rebounds but only 17 turnovers and 24 free throws. About the only miscue Notre Dame committed all night came at the end of the first quarter when Colson started heading toward the locker room out of habit.
The full bracket for the women’s tournament can be found here. Tickets are still available. “Its been about 20 years since we had back-to-back NCAA appearances, so I’m very proud of my players, my staff and the entire Marquette community”.
Guard/forward Troy Brown (No. 18 on Wasserman’s list) and the Oregon Ducks will play the Rider Broncs. No. 12 Belmont, 11 a.m., Saturday No. 4 Georgia vs.
The Golden Eagles are 4-10 all-time in the NCAA Tournament and fell in the 2017 first round to No. 12 Quinnipiac in Coral Gables, Florida. Hutchison made a big leap between his sophomore and junior seasons, going from a 6.8-point average to 17.4 points.
The game opened at a pedestrian pace, with the score sitting at 10-8 in favor of Notre Dame at the under-five minute timeout in the first quarter, with senior forward Martinas Geben piling in six early points. Teams play at a higher level, they come with adrenaline, come with a super tight focus.
The West is not as powerful as the South with a weak No. 1 seed in Xavier and a UNC team that has struggled at times this year as the two seed. “Where did you play them and how did you do?” I thought we defended well against a team that’s a pretty good offensive group. Lysander Bracey closed the scoring in the game and the season for Hampton with a deep 3-pointer for an 84-63 final score. Texas, which finished the season with a 26-6 record, is the 2-seed in the Kansas City region.
It also provides the other No. 1 seeds with one fewer foe to take on at the Final Four, as SC is easily the most risky of the No. 2 seeds. “You can start to see that route to get back to NY”. But which No. 2 seed should’ve gone to Albany instead?
Here’s one pick for a first-round upset: Look for Northern Kentucky to take down Louisville in the first round. Last year Mississippi State stunned UConn in the national semifinals, ending the Huskies’ 111-game win streak and streak of four straight NCAA titles.
In a regular season matchup between UConn and SC in February, the UConn women defeated SC by 25 points.
The Bobcats are now on a 22-game winning streak.
