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.

Washington Offense

The Huskies are currently averaging 31.5% accuracy from three-point range.

UW has six players shooting 31.1% or better from beyond the arc :

Chloe Briggs (36.4%)
Teagan Brown (36.0%);
Elle Ladine (34.5%);
Lauren Schwartz (33.9%)
Jayda Noble ( 31.8%); and
Hannah Stines (31.1%).

Washington’s offense is also very efficient from close range, averaging 59.7% within 4.5 feet of the rim; and 40.6% from further out in the lane.

Overall, 53.3% of the UW Huskies made shots are the result of their 13.3 assists per game.

Prediction: Huskies must slow the game or face a possible blowout defeat

Washington is a huge underdog.

Colorado is deep and is going to come at the Huskies in waves.

The Dawgs will have to slow the game down significantly to control the tempo; and limit turnovers to remain in this game for 40 minutes.

GO DAWGS!
