home winning streak

The Cardinals had an impressive offensive performance, with five players scoring in double figures. Jayda Curry had a standout game, delivering a season-high 19 points and showcasing her accuracy by shooting 7-for-12 from the field, including a perfect 2-for-2 from behind the arc. Merissah Russell also had a noteworthy game, scoring a season-high 12 points on 3-for-3 shooting.

Gillotte played a pivotal role in the Cardinals’ victory, recording 1.5 sacks against Virginia. This stellar performance not only earned him the prestigious weekly conference accolade but also propelled him up to sixth place in the nation for total sacks this season, with an impressive 10.0 sacks in total. The junior from Boca Raton, Florida, showcased his exceptional talent and marked himself as a force to be reckoned with on the defensive line.

The Cardinals’ special teams made a resounding impact right from the start, as they blocked a punt in the endzone, and Jimmy Calloway managed to recover the ball for a touchdown just before halftime. This gave Louisville a 14-0 lead heading into the locker room.
