Rick Pitino doesn't expect Gorgui Dieng back next season. Louisville's head coach said that his 6-foot-11 junior big man is "98 percent gone" and will participate in Senior Day festivities on Saturday when the Cardinals close out their home slate against Notre Dame.

Senior Danielle Adams scores 30 points to lead Texas A&M to its first women’s basketball championship.

Bernard James scored 14 points, Michael Snaer added 13 and Florida State showed there's more to its game than defense with a 71-57 upset of second-seeded Notre Dame on Sunday night that put the Seminoles in the regional semifinals for the first time since 1993.

The Arc: Notre Dame grabs the final No. 1 seed and is slotted out West. Ohio State is a lock for the top line.

Notre Dame regained a bit of its confidence, while Louisville (No. 7 ESPN/USA Today, No. 5 AP) appeared to lose some in one of the most thorough whippings coach Rick Pitino remembers a team of his experiencing.
