Lady Vols, Irish, Zags, & Cardinal advance to Elite 8
Tennessee's head coach Pat Summitt absolutely lit up her Lady Vols at the break and their Dayton regional semifinal game Saturday tilted soon after. With Shekinna Stricklen scoring 14 of her 20 points in the second half and touching off a critical 11-3 second-half run, Summitt and the #1 Lady Vols moved into their accustomed spot in the Elite Eight with an 85-75 win over #4 Ohio State.
Brittany Mallory scored a season-high 20 points for the Irish, and Notre Dame’s defensive pressure forced 24 turnovers & quickly took its toll in a 78-53 win over #6 Oklahoma on Saturday that sent the #2 Fighting Irish to the Dayton regional finals against #1 Tennessee this Monday night at 7 pm ET.
Courtney Vandersloot did a little of everything again, scoring 29 points, handing out seven assists and getting seven steals as #11 Gonzaga advanced to the Elite Eight for the first time in school history with a 76-69 win against #7 Louisville on Saturday night in the Spokane regional semifinal of the women's NCAA tournament.
Nnemkadi Ogwumike and her freshman sister, Chiney, scored 12 of Stanford’s final 15 points and the #1 Cardinal held on in the final minute for a 72-65 win over #5 North Carolina on Saturday night in the other Spokane regional semifinal. Stanford will now face #11 Gonzaga, who will play in front of their hometown of Spokane, WA, this Monday night at 9 pm ET.
