Louisville had 17 turnovers, while Siena committed just nine.  Terrence Williams had 24 points and 15 rebounds, and Earl Clark added 12 points and 12 boards for the Cardinals. Siena (27-8) overcame a 12-point deficit in the second half and led by four before Williams took over, hitting 3s, getting rebounds and starting fast breaks with one-handed passes.

Arizona Desert Swarm offered this snapshot of the Cardinals:

The Louisville Cardinals are this year's number 1 overall seeded team in the Tournament.  They will be playing only 114 miles away when they take on the Wildcats in Indianapolis on Friday.  They are likely to have a huge home court advantage, unless Arizona fans make the trip from the heavily alumni populated Chicago.  Louisville has gone 2-0 in the Tournament by defeating Morehead State 74-54 and Siena 79-72.  They put together a tremendous season going 28-5 in the regular season and 19-2 in the strong Big East conference.  They won their first Big East Conference championship by defeating Syracuse 76-66.
