UConn Overwhelms Louisville For NCAA Women’s Title

The Schimmel sisters certainly tried to summon one more magical performance for Louisville.

Against mighty Connecticut, Shoni and Jude Schimmel's "rez ball" repertoire of flashy passes and shots produced about as many misses and turnovers as points, and the Cardinals' stirring run of upsets came to an end. UConn's 93-60 win Tuesday was the largest margin ever in a women's NCAA title game,.

Sara Hammond was the only Louisville player to reach double figures with 15 points. Shoni Schmimel finished with 9.
