Matchup inside will be key when Oklahoma faces Washington

SEATTLE (AP) — Washington's Chantel Osahor and Oklahoma's Vionise Pierre-Louis are two of the more skilled, unique post players in the country, each with the ability to take over a game in their own way.

Pierre-Louis will do most of her damage on the low block with an array of post moves that this year has seen her score 15 or more points five times in the past eight games. But as she showed in Oklahoma's first-round NCAA Tournament win over Gonzaga, she can control the interior on the defensive end with a school-record nine blocked shots.
