Deadspin | Women’s NCAA Fort Worth 1 roundup: No. 3 Ohio State cruises past No. 14 Howard

Sports news

Ohio State Buckeyes guard Jaloni Cambridge (22) shoots in front of Howard Bison forward Sa’lah Hemingway (11) during the first round of the NCAA women’s basketball tournament at the Jerome Schottenstein Center in Columbus on March 21, 2026.

Jaloni Cambridge scored 21 points and sister Kennedy Cambridge added 11 points with seven rebounds as No. 3 seed Ohio State rolled to a 75-54 first-round victory over No. 14 Howard in a Fort Worth Region 1 game at Columbus, Ohio.

Chance Gray and Ava Watson also scored 11 points each and Elsa Lemmila added 11 rebounds as the Buckeyes (27-7) advanced to face the winner of the first-round game between Notre Dame and Fairfield.

Zennia Thomas scored 15 points and Ariella Henigan added 14 points with 10 rebounds as the Bison (26-8) saw their 14-game winning streak come to an end.

Ohio State shot 45.0% from the floor while holding Howard to 33.9% overall and 0 of 9 from 3-point range.

The Bison led 14-12 with less than two minutes remaining in the first quarter before the Buckeyes went on a 12-0 run between the first and second quarters. Ohio State added a 13-0 run just before halftime to lead 43-19 at the break and Howard never threatened in the second half.

Notre Dame 79, Fairfield 60

Hannah Hidalgo flirted with a quadruple-double and sixth-seeded Notre Dame pulled away from 11th-seeded Fairfield for the win in the first-round game in Columbus, Ohio.

Hidalgo scored a game-high 23 points while adding nine rebounds, eight steals and six assists as the Fighting Irish (23-10) advanced to a second-round game against Ohio State Monday.

Iyana Moore added 18 points and Cassandre Prosper chipped in 17 points and rebounds for Notre Dame. The Irish sank 46.9% of their field-goal attempts and earned a 43-30 rebounding advantage. They also dominated paint points, doubling up the Stags 44-22.

Meghan Andersen scored 21 points for Fairfield (28-5). Jillian Huerter added 12 and Janelle Brown came off the bench for 10 points but it wasn’t enough. The Stags hit only 38.3 % of their field-goal attempts and committed 19 turnovers that led to 22 points.

Notre Dame never trailed and led for all but 15 seconds of the game. It led by as many as 23 points in the third quarter.

PREVIEW

England will have a chance to prove it has learned from its Ashes drubbing when it faces New Zealand in the first Test of its home season at Lord’s on Thursday.

The English were swept aside 4-1 in Australia in a series that ended in January, sparking renewed criticism of Brendon McCullum’s men over their ultra-aggressive “Bazball” style of cricket.

Attacking cricket has been the hallmark of McCullum’s four years as England coach, starting with a thrilling series win over New Zealand in 2022.

But it has failed to deliver series wins against either Australia or India, and McCullum accepts England must display greater cricket intelligence if it is to improve.

Deadspin | Wyndham Clark, J.J. Spaun part of 4-way tie for Memorial lead May 31, 2026; Fort Worth, Texas, USA; J.J. Spaun plays his shot from the sixth tee during the final round of the Charles Schwab Challenge golf tournament. Mandatory Credit: Raymond Carlin III-Imagn Images Former U.S. Open winners Wyndham Clark and J.J. Spaun share the first-round lead of the Memorial Tournament with Ryan Gerard and Englishman Tommy Fleetwood after they each shot 5-under-par 67 on Thursday in Dublin, Ohio. Two weeks out from the U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills, Clark and Spaun showed where their games stood as they prepare to contend for a second major title. Clark won the U.S. Open in 2023 and Spaun is the reigning champion. Clark putted from off the green to convert a 45 1/2-foot eagle at the par-5 15th hole Thursday. That got him to 6 under par, but he bogeyed the penultimate hole at Muirfield Village Golf Club to drop back. Clark only qualified for the signature event after he won the Charles Schwab Challenge on Sunday in Fort Worth, Texas, which earned him enough points via the “Aon Swing 5” pathway. Spaun birdied his final hole to get to 5 under, while Fleetwood posted the only bogey-free card among the leaders. Gerard had a much wilder afternoon and finished with only five pars on his card. He went out in even-par 36 with two bogeys, two bounce-back birdies, then an eagle and a double bogey at Nos. 7 and 8. But he caught fire on the back nine with six birdies, including five straight at Nos. 12-16, before a bogey at No. 17 knocked him back to 5 under. Canada’s Nick Taylor is alone in fifth at 4-under 68, and Sam Burns and England’s Justin Rose are tied at 3-under 69. Two-time defending champion Scottie Scheffler had a number of mistakes on the back nine, including a tee shot into the water at the par-3 16th that led to a double bogey. The World No. 1 settled for a 1-over 73 and isn’t a lock to make Friday’s 36-hole cut (top 50 and ties, plus anyone within 10 shots of the lead). World No. 2 Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland, seeking his first victory at Jack Nicklaus’ tournament, opened with a 1-under 71. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Wyndham #Clark #J.J #Spaun #part #4way #tie #Memorial #leadMay 31, 2026; Fort Worth, Texas, USA; J.J.

A strange TikTok popped up on Dylan Harper’s page the day after the game. Harper reposted a video with the title “De’Aaron Fox seen honoring playoff James Harden after shooting one of his statline.” The video showed Fox’s 3-for-13 box score line next to Harden’s 3-for-13 line in the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Game 2 loss to the Detroit Pistons in the first round. The video is no longer on Harper’s page, but multiple people confirmed it was indeed there earlier.

The most likely explanation here is that Harper accidentally reposted the video to his page without realizing what he was doing.

Harper played 28 minutes in Game 1. Fox played 38 minutes. If Harper continues to be more effective, head coach Mitch Johnson will have to make a tough decision to sit a veteran for a rookie.

Harden is a famous playoff dropper. I wouldn’t put Fox in that category yet, but he hasn’t been very good during this Spurs run. In his defense, Fox has been playing through an ankle sprain that he suffered in the Western Conference Finals. Harper is also playing through an abductor injury.

I wouldn’t blame Harper is he felt frustrated with his role in Game 1 especially after such a hot start. He can’t air his grievances on social media, even if it was by accident. Chalk this up to a rookie mistake by Harper. He doesn’t make many of them.
