Amna Subhan | NCAA.com | April 1, 2022 March Madness: South Carolina defeats Louisville to advance to title game South Carolina vs. Louisville - Women’s NCAA tournament Final Four highlights Share After falling just short in last year’s Final Four, No. 1 South Carolina took care of business against No. 1 Louisville, 72-59, to advance to the title game. Double-doubles are typical for Gamecocks star Aliyah Boston, but the Naismith Player of the Year took it to the next level by scoring 23 points, 18 rebounds and four assists — and even hit a 3-pointer to match Louisville's output from the entire team. Not only did @aa_boston lock in her 29th double-double of the season, she also owns a new single-season rebounding record!51-38, Gamecocks, 4:34 to go in the third. pic.twitter.com/i2eYkgzJrm— GamecockWBB (@GamecockWBB) April 2, 2022 South Carolina’s defense stifled Louisville offensively. The Gamecocks limited leading scorer Hailey Van Lith, keeping her to only 4 for 10 shooting. She had only 9 points after reaching 20+ in the four previous NCAA tournament games. Senior forward Emily Engstler stepped up, scoring 18 points while pulling down nine boards, but fouled out with less than 5 minutes in the fourth. Engstler retreated to the bench in tears feeling the national championship hopes slip away, something South Carolina knew well just a year ago. South Carolina will next play for the program's second national title. Click here to read the quarterly updates from South Carolina's Final Four victory. "We're not going home...
