I don't usually pay much attention to women's basketball, however, with the University of Louisville women's team in the NCAA Final Four I decided to watch. The first half was ugly. The Cards started out missing their first dozen or so shots from the field and Oklahoma roared out to a 16-4 lead. Amazingly, the Cards were only behind by that margin at the half, but I thought they were pretty much sunk and didn't plan to watch the second half.
A little bit later I turned on the TV just to see how far behind we were. Lo and behold, we were ahead by 4! There followed a very exciting game with several ties, a couple of lead changes, and a last second three-point attempt by Oklahoma to try to win the game. It bounced off the rim and the Cards won their first-ever Final Four game 61-59! Now they move on to the Championship game against either Connecticut or Stanford.
Go Cards!
