Ninth-seeded Washington married its usually good defense with an unusually proficient performance on offense Friday night, scoring a 78-61 win over eighth-seeded Utah State in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
Four players scored in double figures for the Huskies , which will meet the Iona-North Carolina winner on Sunday in a Midwest Region second-round game. Noah Dickerson led the way with a 20-point, 12-rebound double-double, the 24th of his career. Most importantly, Thybulle and his teammates put the clamps on the Aggies’ best player, 6-5 junior guard Sam Merrill. Coming into the game averaging nearly 28 ppg in his last five games, Merrill didn’t score until the midway point of the second half and managed only 10 points on 2-of-9 shooting.
Washington canned 49 percent of its field goals, including an outstanding 10-of-17 on 3-pointers, and limited the Aggies to 19 of 54 shooting from the field. It forced 21 turnovers.
