Observations
Louisville’s press and 2-3 zone bothered N.C. State last March in the NCAA tournament. The Cardinals doubled point guard Cat Barber fullcourt to make him give the ball up. Barber, who got sick the night before the NCAA loss, shot just 3-of-14 and scored eight points in the last meeting.
