There was Hailey Van Lith with five 3-pointers and game-high 19 points. Kianna Smith with 11 points and five rebounds. Chelsie Hall with four rebounds, three assists and two steals. Emily Engstler with five rebounds, three steals, two blocks and eight points.
Mykasa Robinson with four rebounds, three assists, a steal and five points. Olivia Cochran and Liz Dixon throwing their weight and height around, making life difficult for adversaries beneath the basket.
And then there was Payton Verhulst, seeing her first significant action early and often against a major opponent. And it was just too much for Duke, far too much, the University of Louisville women’s basketball team defeating the Blue Devils 77-65.
