Marq loses again. Playing themselves out of a hosting gig.

Did Grymek play in the 4th?

Yes she did, but was a non-factor. Played the first ~3:30 and then briefly a litter bit later.
 
Very important win for ASU. Virtually ensures they stay out of the dreaded 8/9 game of the NCAAs, and gives them a chance at a bye for the Pac-12 tournament.

Marquette has issues. That's 2 of 3 games they've lost since the season-ending injury to Davenport.

THat was awesome! I am on a train home and just burst out with a Gaffaw and got the whole car looking a team me! Priceless
 
Missed the 4th Q and the long scoreless drought, but I share your view Plebe, thought it was overall a well executed defensive slugfest. But man, OSU was basically a two-woman show today (Pivec and Goodman). And wow, CTT is a magician: at the half she "guaranteed" a big 3rd quarter and said they needed to get the ball to Ibis more, and sure enough, they did, and it was.

Also important win for PAC-12 tourney - either ASU or UCLA is going to have to play on the first day, so locking up fourth place is a big deal. Also marginally important for the Stanford vs. Oregon State race for #2 - short of losing both games in Washington this weekend, we'll be the number two seed in the PAC-12 thanks to the ASU upset.

In other action, Creighton closes 1Q on a 15-2 run to lead Marquette, 28-13. Upset alert.

And Butler is down huge (25 points) to Georgetown in 4Q. This will be a huge blow to Butler's at-large chances.

Butler didnt need to be in the NCAA tourney anyway

This UCLA production is frustrating. They keep cutting away from the action to show useless graphics.

Luckily it was sublime in the 3rd quarter so they could afford to go scoreless for 6+ minutes.

And Rueck just got T'ed up twice in succession and ejected.

He's mild mannered, except when he isn't. I've seen a handful of games where he rides the refs hard and has picked up techs.
 
Some bad news for Oregon. Taylor Chavez, by far their best guard off the bench, is out "indefinitely" with a foot injury.

Yes, it's quite ironic that the two LA schools have possibly the worst live streams in the Pac-12.

Stanford was like that last week. It’s because they’re just sending the same video that goes to the scoreboard. Sometimes they cut away, but the I saw more ads for Stanford’s Credit Union than replays.
 
Somehow 5-7 Aari McDonald swatted 6-5 Lydia Giomi in the Oregon-Arizona game. She got up fairly high and got off balance, pretty much landed directly on her face. Looked like it hurt. Left the game for a while but came back in. She's having a nice duel w/ Ionescu. Oregon's been in control most of the way but Arizona is hanging around.


edit--Ionescu and Destiny Graham had a little shoving match, refs reviewing it. Could be a double technical.
 
Washington is giving Cal everything they can handle, within 2 at halftime. Keeping Anigwe sort of under control (8 pts/8 boards). Melgoza is having a nice game w/ 13 points. Missy Peterson might've found her missing shooting touch. She's not wearing a mask tonight, been wearing it most of the season, I don't think she ever adjusted to it.


edit--oops, Anigwe scored 8 in the first 3 minutes of Q3 and Cal is blowing it wide open, up 14

Aari McDonald reminds me of Megan Walker when she's having a good game.
 
I’m at the Oregon-Arizona game. AZ really gave the Ducks a game in the first half. McDonald is explosive - reminds me of Arike except she’s a PG and not a chucker. Hebard wearing a brace, but playing great. She and Sabally are eating the AZ bigs alive on both ends in the 2nd half and there’s nothing they can do about it,

The player McDonald most reminds me of is Odyssey Sims. Both lefties, very fast, great defenders, "triple threat" point guards.
Arizona really challenged Oregon in the first half but the Ducks have been up to the test.
 
Cal was up as much as 14. Washington whittled down to 3 but they're going to come up short again. Melgoza was brutal in the 2nd (3-17 I think). She killed their come back. Coach needed to let somebody else shoot the last several possessions. Peterson was on fire, 9-12 overall and 5-6 behind the arc. Anigwe did her thing, 20 points and 17 rebounds. Cal up 6 w/ 3.5 seconds left. UW has been close but not quite at least 3 times against Cal the last 2 seasons.
 
UCLA and Utah was back and forth but Bruins pulling away down the stretch. Gonna come down to the last day of the season for that coveted 4th spot and 1st round bye in the conference tourney.

Stanford is killing Wazzu.

Looks like USC is going to beat Colorado. UW might actually finish 1/2 game out of last place thanks to cancelling the game against ASU and Colorado's struggles.
 
UCLA led by only 3 at the half but really ran away from Utah in the 2nd half.
Onyenwere with another monster game: 29 points, 13 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals.
Kennedy Burke added 19 points, 6 rebounds, 4 steals, 3 assists.

Utah has been a sad story this season. Lost 2 starters to ACL injuries, and those 2 late collapses vs. ASU will probably be what keeps them out of the NCAA tournament.
