Morgan State Golden Bears (3-1)

No. 20 Louisville holds off Morgan State 90-81

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) Louisville center Samardo Samuels lifted all 265 pounds off the ground and extended his right hand toward Freedom Hall's ceiling.

A year ago, the shot from Morgan State's Joe Davis might have made it over Samuels. That was 15 pounds ago.

Samuels swatted the shot to halfcourt, where teammate Rakeem Buckles collected it and slammed it home to help the 20th-ranked Cardinals hold off Morgan State 90-81 on Sunday. (MORE)
