Hot shots take aim at Pepsi Center

Saturday, March 18 at 12:05 AM

Some of the top scorers in NCAA women's basketball will be playing today during first-round tournament games at the Pepsi Center.

The University of Oklahoma's Courtney Paris is No. 9 in women's scoring at 21.4 points per game. Stanford's Candice Wiggins is No. 10 at 21.2 points, with Southeast Missouri's Tatiana Conceicao (19.6 points) and Brigham Young's Ambrosia Anderson (17.9) both ranked among the top 50.

Another player capable of going on a major scoring binge is Iowa's Crystal Smith. Smith, who averaged 17.2 points this season, scored 46 points in a game last November against Louisiana Tech. She is the daughter of Iowa assistant coach (and former Hawkeyes player) Michael Morgan.
