Louisville advances to the Elite Eight with a quick sweep over the Purdue Boilermakers.

After just skating through with a win over UNI, the Cardinals made sure to play as hard as they could.

The Cardinals kept a consistent lead on the Boilermakers, taking the set 25-17.

Set two started off the same way, allowing Purdue to take an initial lead.
