Women's Final Four: Low Scoring, Defensive Struggles

The 2024 Women's Final Four featured a 62-48 South Carolina win and a 51-44 UCLA victory, marking a departure from high-scoring affairs seen in previous years.

UConn and UCLA failed to live up to their offensive reputations in the semifinals, combining for just 113 points. Coaches and analysts argue that the lack of scoring poses a risk to the sport's continued growth.
