 FRESNO, Calif. (AP) - Sylvia Fowles climbed up the ladder and made the final cut before waving the net in celebration. Her team in turmoil coming into the NCAA tournament, Fowles has LSU right back where the Lady Tigers expected to be before their coach's sudden resignation: a fourth straight Final Four appearance.
Fowles overpowered Connecticut with 23 points, 15 rebounds and an intimidating defensive performance that led third-seeded LSU to a 73-50 victory over the top-seeded Huskies on Monday night in the Fresno Regional final.
"Every time I go to sleep I dream about cutting down the net and having it around my neck," Fowles said. "Tonight, that all came true."
