Can Louisville stop Marie Gulich? Oregon State's star center has Beavers on verge of Final Four

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- No matter how far Oregon State advances in the 2018 NCAA women's basketball tournament, the Beavers' opponents will be vexed by one question:

How do you stop Marie Gulich?

It's a question that Oregon State's first three tournament opponents have been unable to answer, and one that now faces the Louisville Cardinals. The top seed in the Lexington Regional, Louisville will meet the sixth-seeded Beavers at 9 a.m. PT Sunday with a spot in the Final Four on the line.

Oregon State's senior center was dominant on both ends of the floor in Friday night's 72-67 regional semifinal victory over a Baylor team that boasts two elite frontcourt players in Kalani Brown and Lauren Cox.
