Even without superstar Paige Bueckers UConn came out blazing in this game. In the first quarter it looks like they might run the Cards out of the gym after holding them scoreless for five minutes. Emily Engtsler being called for two quick fouls surely contributed to Louisville not being in a rhythm early. Then the Cards went on a run of their own and went into halftime down only three. They continued their defensive intensity and managed to grab their first lead about two minutes into the 3rd quarter. Both team traded leads and with 1:30 to go the Cards had a 6 point lead and then it was fouls, free throws, and trying to get to the finish line.
Louisville Takes Down UConn 69-64
