The power of Josh Pastner’s face shield wasn’t enough Sunday night, as Louisville moved to 3-0 in ACC play with a 67-64 road win over Georgia Tech.
The Cardinals trailed by as many as the seven in the first half before taking control at the end of a back-and-forth second half. A handful of missed U of L free-throws in the game’s closing moments afforded Georgia Tech one final chance to send the game to overtime, but Kyle Sturdivant’s three just before the buzzer found nothing but iron.
Malik Williams was once again at the center of nearly everything good for Louisville, finishing with 20 points and 10 rebounds.
