Louisville Stings the Yellow Jackets

Watching Louisville's slow start in their first post-season game one began to wonder if they were weighed down from carrying the hoop dreams of an entire city on their backs. Louisville committed 5 turnovers in the first 3 minutes but as Coach Walz said in his halftime interview "once we figured out which color jersey we were wearing things turned out better." The Cards started pushing the pace, playing ferocious defense, and getting points in transition. They held Georgia Tech scoreless in the final 4 minutes of the half and the ACC's leading scorer, Aaliyah Whiteside, to 2 points on 1 of 9 shooting for the half.
