Michigan women's basketball falls short of Final Four, losing to Louisville, 62-50

Michigan women's basketball came up short of reaching its first-ever Final Four.

Hailey Van Lith scored 22 points, her fourth straight tournament game with at least 20, as Louisville won, 62-50, in the NCAA women's tournament's Wichita regional final on Monday.

Naz Hillmon, the first-team All-American, most likely ends her college career with a double-double: 18 points and 11 rebounds. The No. 3-seeded Wolverines had 20 turnovers and shot 37.2% from the field.

In the second half, Leigha Brown — U-M's second-leading scorer this season — suffered an injury early in the fourth quarter and did not return; she departed with just three points.
