What a great victory.
A legend-worthy performance by Katie Lou Samuelson. What a time to find her stroke.

 

[JordyG]

This was a sweet E8. As Geno says, E8 games are the toughest. Now, I can finally go pee.

 

[PacoBlaze]

Yeah, especially when she (Lou) disappears in EVERY big game

SARCASM!!!!!

And Megan and CW ....

The entire team was GREAT today.

Napheesa didn’t score but got some big rebounds and had some blocks

 

[PacoBlaze]

Is it a Lou recap or a Louisville game recap?

 

[boontonbomber]

oh ye of little faith.

 

[Hongster]

I've never pulled this hard in the history of watching UConn.
So happy for Lou.

Took me a while as can be verified by my "Lou" (not Louisville) posts

 

[LesMis89]

Couldn't watch due to baptism of my first grandchild but I can sure celebrate now!

WOO HOO!!!!!!

Napheesa didn’t score but got some big rebounds and had some blocks

Yeah, she struggled with shots she never misses, but she had some huge blocks and rebounds. She also made the clutch FTs at the end.

 

[Geesworld]

Thought Geno put in a better offensive game plan, that gave Lou a chance to work with more space to be a dual threat. The movement along with Pheesa being so dominant lately created some mismatches and it had Louisville scrambling on a lot of possesions.

 

[HuskyNan]

What a team effort. So many different people made big plays at the end.

 

[Topsail]

Never expected Lou to have this big game with her back... it has been a long time since Lou had a game like this

 

[PacoBlaze]

Pheesa struggled so that her Best Friend could step up to the task

Napheesa didn’t score but got some big rebounds and had some blocks

Collier had 4 of UConns 5 assists in the 2nd half.
3 were to Lou on 3 point baskets and the other was to Dangerfield on a 3 point basket.
Uconns other 2nd half assist was the give and go between Sameulson and Collier.

I kept my promise of sacrificing... I had my good luck UCONN shirt, my good luck game watching sweats, my favorite recliner...and MIKES MANGO! Gotta Believe in the MANGO MOJO!!!

Could. It agree more with the team effort..

 

[ProSkeptic]

All the starters in double figures. Pheesa and Megan both had double-doubles. The threes were falling like raindrops. And Lou...what can I or anyone else say? I fell in love with her all over again.

As for Pheesa, how many players would be judged to have a meh game with a double-double? Unsung heroines for L’ville: Fuehring and Shook, who made things very difficult under the basket for Pheesa. The shots she missed were really tough! Yeah, she usually makes them (and makes them look easy), but this was a reminder of just how incredible Pheesa is. On to Tampa!

 

[GoUconn7961]

I'll take a win with Pheesa only hitting foul shots any day of the week...

 

[DEpup]

The play of CW and MW really made the difference between the first and second Lville games. If they are making shots, that gives Lou more space to work. Everyone played their role today.

Best performance of the year?
