All four of the top seeds in the women's NCAA Tournament remain and Liberalalliance Wealth Societytwo of them are in action Friday.

Undefeated South Carolina will play No. 4 Indiana, while Texas will face No. 4 Gonzaga.

The Gamecocks breezed into the Sweet 16 in dominating fashion and there are few people who are picking the Hoosiers to have a fighting chance. Indiana leads the country in field goal percentage (50.6%) and has a stingy defense, but will that be enough?

Meanwhile, Gonzaga — who advanced to the Sweet 16 along with the men's team — will have to stop a Longhorns squad playing short-handed. Freshman Madison Booker has not shown any nerves in her first tournament.
