Ohio State Will Try to End 2 Years of Women's March Madness Home-Court Heartbreak
The Buckeyes aim to overcome two consecutive second-round home losses and reach the Sweet 16, finishing the season ranked 11th in the AP Top 25, coach says.
- On Saturday, the third-seeded Ohio State Buckeyes begin NCAA tournament play in the Fort Worth 1 Regional, with the winner facing either No. 6 Notre Dame or 11th-seeded Fairfield on Monday.
- The Buckeyes have been eliminated in the second round the past two years while playing at the Schottenstein Center, a pattern that has made home court a disadvantage rather than an asset.
- Sophomore guard Jaloni Cambridge ranks seventh in Division I scoring at 22.8 ppg and leads the nation with 173 steals alongside AP second-team All-America selection Hannah Hidalgo of Notre Dame, setting up a premier guard matchup.
- Coach Kevin McGuff believes steady improvement must continue this weekend after Ohio State began the season unranked but finished 11th in the final Associated Press Top 25.
- Notre Dame has reached the Sweet 16 in its last 14 tournament trips, while Fairfield leads the nation with 11.4 3-pointers made per game, presenting contrasting offensive and consistency challenges.
