I’m just rooting for Blakes to score as much as possible. She has a chance to catch C**tl*n Cl*rk.

FINAL: Notre Dame 67, Vanderbilt 64

Hidalgo: 31 pts, 11 reb, 10 stl
Blakes: 26 pts, 8 reb

Irish become just the third 6-seed since 2009 to reach the Elite Eight.

Eyebrow-raiser in game 2.

UConn only up 28-20 on North Carolina at halftime, and that includes an 8-0 UConn run at the start of the 2nd quarter.

Fudd has 2 pts on 1-7 FG. Strong (13) and Quinones (11) carrying the load.

And a 10-0 run by UCONN to start the 3rd Quarter

UConn remembered they're UConn.

1:40, 2nd - 23-20
5:30, 3rd - 40-20
FINAL - 63-42

Duke knocks off LSU, 87-85, on a 3-pointer at the buzzer that went around the rim twice before dropping through.

Michigan 71, Louisville 52
The most competitive game of the day so far -- which is a wild thing to say about a 19-point margin. Michigan used an 18-0 run in the third quarter to break open a 1-point game and that was that.

The first of two SEC games. Horns led by 18 after the first quarter.

South Carolina 94, Oklahoma 68
The second of two SEC games. Carolina led by 10 after 1, and by 19 at halftime.
