NCAA Tournament first round
March 16 at Ferrell Center in Waco, TX
ESPN2
The duo of Katelynn Flaherty and Hallie Thome were too much for the Big Sky champions as the Wolverines advanced with a 75-61 win.
Flaherty, Michigan's all-time leading scorer for either gender, scored 20 points and Thome dominated inside, finishing with 24 points on 9-of-14 shooting. The No. 7 seed shot 57% (28-of-49) and didn't trail after Flaherty drained a 3-pointer with just over five minutes left in the opening quarter.
In its first-ever trip to the NCAAs, Northern Colorado was led by the Savannah's, Scott (game-high 25 points) and Smith (16 points).

Game 382 - (6) Cincinnati vs. (3) UCLA
NCAA Tournament second round
March 19 at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, CA
TBS
The second half was just about UCLA offense at its finest.
Led by the dynamic Lonzo Ball, the Bruins turned a three-point halftime deficit into a 79-67 victory and the program's third Sweet 16 in the last four seasons.
UCLA had a 7-0 run early in the second, made 8-of-10 field goals at one point, and took the lead for good at at the 13 1/2-minute mark on Ball's 3-pointer. The guard handed out nine assists - he leads the country in that category - and also had 18 points and seven rebounds.
UCLA's offense, which is tops nationally in scoring and field goal percentage, shot 63% from the field in the second half & was also remarkably efficient throughout the game (21 assists and just three turnovers).
Aaron Holiday had five of those assists off the bench.
Speaking of the benches, Cincinnati reserve freshman Jarron Cumberland had a really nice night leading the sixth-seeded Bearcats with 15 points on 7-of-13 shooting. Cumberland rebounded his own miss and hit a jumper with about 4 1/2 minutes to go that pulled the Bearcats to within 70-63, but they got no closer.
UCLA will try to reach its first Elite 8 since the program went to three consecutive final fours from 2005-2008.

Game 173 - (5) Connecticut vs. (4) Cincinnati
American quarterfinals
March 11 at Amway Center in Orlando, FL

Not too often do I find myself agreeing with something Mike Patrick says. I don't have anything against him as an announcer, just never remember saying "you know what, Mike Patrick just might have something there!"
But at some point during the third overtime of this ridiculous, four-OT classic won by Connecticut 104-97, Patrick said "this has been special."
You know what, Mike Patrick just might have something there!
Just the end of the third overtime by itself would've made this game extremely memorable: Cincinnati snaps a tie with an Octavius Ellis offensive rebound kick out to Kevin Johnson for a go-ahead 3-pointer with .8 seconds left, then Jalen Adams banked in an absurd, running three from about 60 feet to send it to the fourth OT.
(Real quick - was just double-checking some things on the play-by-play and Cincinnati's web site has instead of Adams (jersey #2) hitting the 3-pointer it's Briana Pulido, who wears #2 on the women's team. The Connecticut women are so good they are contributing to victories by the men's team!)
Cincinnati's Troy Caupain was outstanding (37 points in a ridiculous 56 minutes), the Connecticut duo of Adams (22 points, 8-for-16 FG) and Daniel Hamilton (32 points, 12 rebounds and eight assists with only one turnover in 55 minutes) were fantastic. So many big shots and defensive stops. It was a pleasure to watch & easily the best of our first 173 games.

Some solid nonsense to go over from commentator Mark Wise during this 69-51 Cincinnati win.
Let's take a look at his top 5:
5. "Catch and shoot guys"
4. "A show and go"
3. "He's owning that high rent district"
2. "Straddling the bubble"
1. "From bonus land!" (said four times)

Cincinnati had six in double figures, including 13 points, 14 rebounds and five assists from Gary Clark, 25 team assists and was never threatened in this one, an 87-66 victory.
It was also a nice night for some Basketball Phrases.
"The engine that steers the ship"
"Tick tack foul"
"You can't teach height"
"Pounding the rock"
"They're going to clean the glass all day"
"They have to play guarantee games"
"The kick ahead"
"Bringing home the hardware"
"Pep in their step"
"Sharing the rock"
