With 23 points against UConn, freshman Cotie McMahon led Ohio State to the Elite Eight — its first trip since 1993.
and 23 against the Huskies, while playing over 30 minutes in each game and proving her ability as a versatile defender who can guard multiple positions.
"She's like LeBron James in a lot of ways," North Carolina coach Courtney Banghart said prior to the second round."She's really physical. If you put her in football pads, she'd be a tight end. Her physicality is part of what you're guarding, in that way. She's playing fearlessly partly because I'm not sure she entirely knows what she's doing, and that's a beautiful thing for a freshman.
Late in the fourth quarter, as the Huskies made their final push of the game in a 9-0 run over three minutes, McMahon ended Ohio State's drought with a layup that drew contact. The once-uncertain freshman stepped up for the free throw and cooly converted the three-point play, all but sealing the win for the Buckeyes.
