Georgetown is 16 - 9 overall and 6 - 8 Big East. They last played UConn on January 7th. In their last outing, they started (Graceann Bennett, Kelsey Ransom, Alex Cowan, Ariel Jenkins, and Victoria Rivera). The most consistent starters for Georgetown in the last 10 games are: (Kelsey Ransom, Victoria Rivera, Alex Cowan, Gracean Bennett, and Brianna Scott). It should be noted that May Brembry averages 26 minutes, Ariel Jenkins averages 11.5 minutes, and Jada Claude averages 10.7 minutes per game. Georgetown will start with 2 graduate students, 1 senior, 1 junior, and 1 sophomore.
The scorers for Georgetown were: Graceann Bennett - 13 points; Kelsey Ransom - 12 points; Alex Cowan - 10 points; Mya Bembry - 9 points; Ariel Jenkins - 7 points; Victoria Rivera - 2 points, and Jada Claude - 2 points. All of our starters scored in the double digits with Aaliyah Edwards leading the way with 18. The score was 83 to 55, a 28-point victory for UConn.
Georgetown averages 58.3 points per game and they make 4.6 three-pointers per game while shooting them at 28 percent. They are a pretty good rebounding team averaging 36.8 rebounds per game. In the first meeting with UConn, they dominated the glass pulling down 44 rebounds to UConn's 27. Georgetown averages 15.4 turnovers per game. They average 6.9 steals per game and 3.9 blocks per game.
ANALYSIS
Aaliyah Edwards - 6'3" vs Graceann Bennett - 6'3" - In the first game Graceann gave Aaliyah all she could handle, scoring 13 points and grabbing 12 rebounds. She contributed 3 assists and 1 steal in their losing effort. Aaliyah had 18 points and 6 rebounds. She contributed 3 assists, 1 steal, and 1 block. I believe that Graceann played over her head in front of a home crowd. This game will be played at Storrs, CT and I think Aaliyah will come to play. ADVANTAGE - UCONN
Paige Bueckers - 6'0" vs Breanna Scott - 6'4" - While I don't like this match-up because Paige is playing out of position and giving up 4 inches, we simply do not have anyone else besides Ice who would match up with Breanna. In the last match-up, while Breanna did not start she played 25 minutes and she had 9 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 block. Based on her starting in 6 of the last 10 games I think she will get the start on Friday. Paige had 15 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals. ADVANTAGE - UCONN
Nika Muhl - 5'11" vs Kelsey Ransom - 5'10" - In their first game Kelsey had 12 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists. UConn caused her to turn the ball over 5 times. Nika found herself in foul trouble committing 4 fouls but she managed to score 14 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists while going 4 for 5 from three-point. Nika was also a master thief in that game getting 4 steals.
ADVANTAGE - UCONN
Ashlynn Shade - 5'10" vs Victoria Rivera - 6'0" - Victoria did not have a very good game against UConn in her first outing. She only had 2 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist. Ashlynn had a solid game. She had 16 points while going 2-5 from three-point. She also contributed 1 rebound, 2 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block.
ADVANTAGE - UCONN
KK Arnold 5'9" vs Alex Cowan 5'7" - Alex played well against UConn in her first outing. She had 10 points, hitting 2-5 three-pointers. KK also played well in the first match-up. She had 12 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, and 4 steals. ADVANTAGE - UCONN
