RedHawk women trying to stay close
(This report comes from Pete Conrad at Bridgeport Arena at Harbor Yard in Bridgeport, Conn.)
The Miami women’s basketball team is hanging on grimly in its first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance, trailing at halftime 41-28 against the Louisville Cardinals, who have a couple times seemed to be on the verge of blowing the game wide open.
Miami senior Amanda Jackson struggled in the first half until she hit her first basket, a short bank shot, with 3:46 remaining in the period. She follwed with a 3-point basket a half-minute later, but Miami’s defense has yet to find a way to stop Louisville’s Angel McCoughtry, who leads all players with 14 points.
Jenna Schone leads Miami with eight points, including a pair of 3-pointers, which curbed some of Louisville’s early momentum.
The RedHawks are holding their own on the boards, leading in rebounds 18-18.
