Wake Forest: For the first time in 30 years, the Demon Deacons advanced to the NCAA Tournament behind Spear, one of the ACC’s stars as a true freshman. She’s an elite scorer from beyond the arc and at the free throw line, and NU will have to deploy one or more of its guards — perhaps Haiby and some other backup — toward stopping her. Otherwise, Wake has been an elite defensive team in seven wins over mid-to-low major teams, allowing 48.71 points per game and just 18.1% shooting from the 3-point line. At least some of that is a function of Wake’s foes — a combined 17-23 on the season — but the Demon Deacons allow very second chance points, as well, with four players averaging five or more rebounds. Summiel, at 8.3 rebounds, leads the way. Wake Forest doesn’t force a ton of turnovers and it doesn’t tend to foul much. NU should be able to run its half-court offense.
