Third-seeded TCU (30-5) and the No. 6 Huskies (22-10) will face off in the second round of the NCAA Tournament at 9 p.m. Sunday<\/a> at Schollmaier Arena. The Horned Frogs are 8.5-point favorites<\/a>, and the total is 126.5.<\/p>\n Washington is led by the backcourt featuring two All Big Ten guards in junior Sayvia Sellers and sophomore Avery Howell. Howell led the Huskies with 30 points in their 72-54 first-round win<\/a> over South Dakota State on Friday. In the regular season, the guard duo averaged 32.2 points per game, with both players being dangerous from beyond the arc (Sellers 35.5% and Howell 42.7%).<\/p>\n Junior guard Donovyn Hunter is one of TCU\u2019s best on-ball defenders, and she described how the Horned Frogs plan on slowing down the Huskies\u2019 guards.<\/p>\n \u201cI think if we\u2019re just intentional with being in our spots, making sure we have our hands in people\u2019s shot pockets, just the small little things that we have to do on defense,\u201d she said. \u201c… We\u2019re going to make sure that we\u2019re in our spots all the time. We\u2019re running back, we\u2019re defending transition, we\u2019re doing all these other things. I think our team\u2019s able to put together a game worth of good defense.\u201d<\/p>\n TCU is more than capable of putting together a good game on defense, as the Horned Frogs are the 14th-ranked defensive team in the country and have dominated on that side of the floor throughout the season.<\/p>\n Graduate forward Marta Su\u00e1rez acknowledged that TCU would have to contend with a strong Washington team, but pointed out that the Horned Frogs\u2019 own highly potent offense had to be dealt with.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re in a great position where we just got to take care of our basketball,\u201d she said. \u201cWe just got to do what we\u2019re going to do. We don\u2019t gotta do anything special but keep them in front, contain. That\u2019s what we\u2019ve been doing all year long. That\u2019s what we\u2019re capable of doing. And then let\u2019s see what they got for us. They got to play defense on us.\u201d<\/p>\n Game schedule dates, times, locations March 12 Mavericks 120, Memphis 112 March 13 Cleveland 138, Mavericks 105 March 15 Mavericks 130, Cleveland 120 March 16 New Orleans 129, Mavericks 111 March 18 Atlanta 135, Mavericks 120 March 21 vs. L.A.
