Louisville sweeps No. 1 Syracuse in Freedom Hall Finale
Louisville,
KY (03-07-2010):
University of Louisville made its final appearance at
Freedom Hall a memorable one when the Cardinals came
from behind to topple No. 1 Syracuse University 78-68 on
Saturday night in front of an appreciative home crowd
and a national television audience. With the victory,
Louisville (20-11, 11-7 Big East) may have punched its
ticket to the NCAA tournament, but will know for sure
when the field of 64 is announced next weekend. The
Cardinals had earlier defeated Syracuse in New York thus
sweeping the season series.
Sophomore center Samardo Samuels came alive in
the second half to finish with 12 points and nine
rebounds, including two devastating dunks. Louisville
will play the winner of the University of
Cincinnati/Rutgers University game in the Big East
tournament at 9:00 p.m. EST Wednesday night.
