Final Four games open thread

As we come to the end of March, it’s time for the Final Four games to be played and this is the place to discuss the women’s and men’s games (sorry this missed the opening tip).

The Syracuse Orange women’s basketball program is 1-0 in National Semifinal games. The 2016 Orange beat the Washington Huskies 80-59. Syracuse jumped out to a 23-12 lead at the end of the first quarter and never looked back.

Alexis Peterson had 18 points and 6 assists while Britney Sykes added 17 points. Brianna Day’s 15 rebounds helped the Orange to a 44-24 rebounding edge.
