Saturday afternoon brought more NCAA tournament action, and first up was the women's side with Notre Dame and TCU kicking off the day of college hoops. It turned out to be a big day for Hailey Van Lith, the former LSU star who transferred to TCU ahead of the 2024-25 season. And nobody was more hyped about that than her father and Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs.
TCU was locked in a tight battle with the Fighting Irish for a spot in the Elite Eight and entered the fourth quarter up by one point on Notre Dame. Van Lith checked in at the start of the fourth quarter and went off. She scored five of the Horned Frogs' next seven points, then assisted on another, then scored another five straight points.
