Louisville got on the board first, but the Panthers kept pace.
With each bucket the Cards scored, Eastern Illinois was right there with them.
After the Panthers cut the lead to 13-12, Louisville checked in Anaya Hardy and proceeded to use her height and athleticism to score right over the top.
Louisville ended the quarter on an 8-0 run and led 21-12.
The Cards’ run continued into the second quarter, ending at 14-0 when it was all said and done.
