GAME. BLOUSES.
Tenth-seeded Oregon is riding its freshmen phenoms through the gauntlet of the Bridgeport Regional of the NCAA women’s basketball tournament, this time defeating third-seeded Maryland. First-year players Sabrina Ionescu and Ruthy Hebard dropped 21 and 16 points, respectively, as the Ducks held the nation’s top scoring team to its lowest point total all season in a 77-63 win over the Terrapins on Saturday.
Oregon needed five players to score in double figures to earn its first trip to a regional final in program history, where it will face the top team in the nation, UConn, on Monday.
Brionna Jones and Shatori Walker-Kimbrough had 16 points apiece, but Maryland turned the ball over 21 times, which led to 18 Oregon points.
The Ducks held Maryland to a season-low 63 points. The Terps previous scoring low was 74 points. #Sweet16 #ncaaW
