Washington Defense
The Washington Huskies will need to disrupt the Colorado offense by:
(1) slowing the pace of the game by playing tough transition defense to prevent Colorado from turning this game into a proverbial track meet with their fastbreak offense;
(2) playing stifling halfcourt defense to limit Colorado’s wide open three-point attempts which results from their exceptional team passing ability;
(3) be physical defensively in-the-paint to limit Aaronette Vonleh’s post-up offense; and
(4) crash the defensive boards to limit Colorado’s offensive rebounding and second chance opportunities.

The Huskies are currently averaging 31.9% accuracy from three-point range.
UW has seven players shooting 32.1% or better from beyond the arc :
