Gophers advance to Final Four

After a challenging regular season and two consecutive five-set matches in the NCAA tournament, the resilient Golden Gopher volleyball team swept Louisville (25-21, 25-14, 25-16) Saturday evening in Texas to advance to the Final Four in Pittsburgh. It will be Minnesota's sixth trip overall to the national semifinals, and the third in the last five years under head coach Hugh McCutcheon. The No. 7 seed Gophers will face No. 3 seed and defending national champion Stanford in one semifinal, with No. Wisconsin facing No. Baylor in the other.
