Providence Friars 76 Vs. Louisville 94
Date: February 18, 2009
Game Summary
Terrence Williams had 17 points, eight assists and six rebounds as No. 7 Louisville overcame a shaky first half and pulled away for a 94-76 victory over Providence on Wednesday night.
Edgar Sosa led the Cardinals (20-5, 11-2 Big East) with 18 points, Samardo Samuels added 17 and Earl Clark had 13 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists. Louisville moved into a three-way tie for second place in the conference with No. 4 Pittsburgh and No. 10 Marquette behind No. 1 Connecticut. Providence (16-10, 8-6) was hoping to put a signature win on its NCAA tournament resume, but had no answer in the second half. Jonathan Kale, Sharaud Curry and Weyinmi Efejuku had 15 points each for the Friars, who couldn't sustain the strong shooting that carried them to a slim halftime lead. Louisville coach Rick Pitino - who coached the Friars to the Final Four in 1987 - improved to 4-0 all-time against his former team.

Providence Friars 81 Vs. Pittsburgh | 7:00pm ET73
Date: February 24, 2009
Game Summary
<<Type Weyinmi here>>...Efejuku scored 16 points for Providence, which took a 20-point lead and then turned back one last rally by No. 1 Pittsburgh for an 81-73 victory Tuesday night, the school's second win ever over a top-ranked team. The victory greatly improves the at-large resume for the Friars (17-11, 9-7), who are in sixth place in the 16-team Big East, a league considered by most as the toughest in the country.
Pittsburgh (25-3, 12-3) returned to the No. 1 spot in The Associated Press poll on Monday, its second time there this season as the Panthers spent two weeks on top in January. Sharaud Curry added 15 points for the Friars, while Geoff McDermott had 11 points, six assists and three of Providence's 11 steals. Dejuan Blair had 17 points and eight rebounds, and Sam Young had 16 points and eight rebounds for Pitt, which had won seven straight games and beaten Providence eight consecutive times. Blair was named Big East player of the week after averaging 21 points and 20.5 rebounds in wins over then-No. 1 Connecticut and DePaul last week. He picked up two quick fouls - his third and fourth - midway through the second half, then his fifth with 46 seconds left after Pitt had a chance to make it a four-point game. Providence led by 20 points after scoring the first basket of the second half to complete a 17-1 run. The Panthers cut it to 75-70 on Blair's putback with 51 seconds left. After Brian McKenzie hit two free throws for Providence a fraction of a second later, Pitt brought the ball down and Blair was called for an offensive foul. The fans in the Dunkin' Donuts Center crowded around the courtside press tables for the final minutes. Twice, the public address announcer begged the fans to stay off the court following the game; twice the crowd responded by laughing. Sure enough, after the Friars dribbled out the last 20 seconds - it was too far gone for Pitt to try fouling - the fans went over the tables and chairs circling the court and celebrated one of the biggest wins in school history. The Friars are 2-10 all-time against No. 1-ranked teams, with their other victory coming in double overtime against Michigan in 1976. They 2-5 against ranked teams this season, having also beaten then-No. 15 Syracuse on Jan. 28.
