Louisville women outlast Drake, back to the Sweet 16

These two opponents could play 10 games at the same blistering pace and the outcomes would be as unpredictable as was the opening NCAA tournament round game between the University of Louisville and the Drake Bulldogs basketball teams. Drake will be as good as they come, and UofL will refuse to relent in the face of incredible talent.

Older Louisville fans familiar with the Cardinals’ days in the Missouri Valley Conference, from 1963 to 1975, not expectimg a picnic. Many down-to-the-wire games between the two schools’ men’s basketball teams. Saturday’s battle between the women teams the first on the distaff side.
