Related Topics: NCAA

Members of the University of Louisville volleyball team have moved another win closer to their collective dream with a 3-0 sweep of Baylor in the Sweet 16 round of the NCAA tournament. Their sixth consecutive sweep with scores of 25-23, 25-16, and 25-17, putting them in the Elite Eight for the second straight season.

No signs of jitters, no overconfidence, just a businesslike performance, fending off every challenge, looking every bit like the region’s No. 1 seed and one of the nation’s best college volleyball teams. Doing it in front of 5,002 fans at the KFC Yum! Center, looking as good as they have looked all season, improving their won-lost record to 29-2.
