Women’s NCAA Bracket 2012: Top Ranked Baylor, Stanford Advance

It’s all chalk in both the Fresno and Des Moines regions in the women’s NCAA Tournament. Monday’s Elite Eight games in both regions will feature No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchups. All four of the top seeds won comfortably on Saturday, setting up marquee matchups for the right to go to the Final Four.

Brittney Griner put in a fantastic performance in Baylor’s 83-68 win over Georgia Tech. She scored 30 points, grabbed 10 rebounds and blocked six shots. She also threw down this absolutely ridiculous two-handed dunk. Baylor move on to face Pat Summit’s Tennessee Lady Vols, who beat Kansas 84-73. The two teams met in non-conference play in Waco, with Griner leading Baylor to a victory.

In Fresno, Duke blew out St. John’s 74-47. Shay Shelby put in a spectacular performance for the Blue Devils with 18 points, seven assists, five rebounds and four steals. In their Elite Eight match, they’ll take on the Stanford Cardinal. Nnemkadi Ogwumike, arguably the best player in the country not named Brittney Griner, dominated their game against the South Carolina Gamecocks with 39 points and 10 rebounds. South Carolina hung with the top ranked Cardinal early, but faded away late as Stanford cruised to a 76-60 win.
