"Duke set the tone early by making it difficult for Charleston to get into any rhythm offensively. The Cougars shot just 19% in the first half and trailed 45-26."
"Charleston junior guard Taryn Barbot had 36 points, her fourth 30-plus game this season and 10th of her career, the most points the Blue Devils have allowed any player this season."
"The Blue Devils moved the ball well with 25 assists, but part of Lawson's irritation was turnovers, as Duke had 20. The Blue Devils won the rebounding battle 47-39."
"Olivia Miles fueled TCU's win over UC San Diego, contributing significantly despite being short of her 19.6 PPG average."
Duke defeated Charleston with a strong first half, leading 45-26 at halftime. Charleston's Taryn Barbot scored 36 points, but Duke's offense, led by Toby Fornier's 24 points, proved too much. Duke's defense was strong initially but faltered in the second half, leading to 20 turnovers. TCU's win was fueled by Olivia Miles, who, despite not reaching her average, contributed significantly. Both teams need to improve consistency to advance further in the tournament.
