Purdue State and Utah are underway on the men's side. The Boilermakers entered the game with an 11.5-point lead.
Great play at the end of the first half by K-State's Serena Sundell. She threw the ball off a Colorado defender's back and earned a corner kick as time expired.
Final: South Carolina 88, North Carolina 41
The Gamecocks weren't messing around with this one. MiLaysia Fulwiley continues her impressive run with 20 points and 9 rebounds.
Casual 4-point play for K-State
Like the Colorado men's team, the women's team is also trying to pull off an upset.
Kansas State has the upper hand right now
Big win for Duke to advance to the Sweet 16. Ohio State's offense didn't show up and barely kept its streak going on a 3-pointer with its first and only one in the final 12 seconds. He has now reached 362 matches.
There was only one upset in the first round. But already within one game of the second round, the No. 2 seed is heading home. Although there's not yet enough equality in the 68-team field to pull off big upsets in the first round, that's what we're talking about when we say the middle of the pack is all strong.
Final: Marquette 81, Colorado 77
Tyler Kulek is a hero for Marquette with 21 points, 11 assists, 5 rebounds and some big plays down the stretch to lift the Golden Eagles over the Buffs into the Sweet 16. A healthy Kulek makes this Marquette team dangerous in the tournament.
Final: Duke 75, Ohio State 63
We pulled off our first big upset in the Women's Tournament as the Blue Devils pulled off a huge upset in the second round and earned their first ticket to the Sweet 16. Regan Richardson was the difference, finishing with 28 points and 7 rebounds.
The Colorado-Marquette game will end in free throws.
Tyler Kulek scored 19 points, 11 assists, and 5 rebounds.
We are closed at 74 with three minutes remaining.
The Blue Devils trailed thanks to Regan Richardson's 25 points.
MiLaysia Fulwiley has 11 points and 5 rebounds and the Gamecocks are rolling.
Every time Colorado ties it, Marquette goes on another run. The Golden Eagles scored five straight points after this shot.
This can be huge down the stretch.
Senior Defensive Player of the Year, Celeste Taylor, fouled out with 6:38 remaining, a huge blow for the Buckeyes. Duke leads 56-54. #MarchMadness
Ohio State's struggles from 3 could mean an early exit here. The Buckeyes are 0-8 from the perimeter after shooting 35.6% from there this season. They haven't made fewer than four in a game this year.
Getting 16 of 23 from the free throw line can also be detrimental in a one possession game.
Can the Buckeyes rally in the fourth quarter?
Colorado took its first lead of the game briefly before Marquette took the lead in the eighth.
In the women's first game, the Blue Devils took the lead as the third quarter came to a close. Duke's Regan Richardson is back in action and leads her team with 18 digs.
