This seems a favorable matchup for us.
WSU is very dependent on offense from their two guards,
the Leger-Walkers,
and Anna and Kiana, and Lexie and Lacie of course, are exceptional defenders.
Not sure if the sisters are wearing down from their workload--
five overtimes in their last five games, and they average sitting only two or three minutes a game--
but they're shooting .381/.331 over that stretch.
We already push tempo, but Tara may want to do it even more here.
The Cougs are very dependent on the sisters and don't have a deep bench.
And our size definitely will challenge them, and even more if their big,
who has had a Cameron Brink tendency to foul, gets into foul trouble.
Their only other capable inside player is 6'0'.
