Cardinals All Over the Map
From San Diego, to Raleigh, to Texas, The Cardinals were all over the map yesterday...and that's just Track&Field.
In action at the San Diego Collegiate Open, the Raleigh Relays, and the Texas Relays, the Track&Field squad split up yesterday, and even that is only the start of the Cardinal's locations yesterday.
Tennis was competing at Duke, Rowing some successes in the PAC-12 Challenge, Baseball was in Tallahassee, while Softball and Lacrosse were at home on Floyd Street.
Results on some of these competitions are a bit scarce, but we'll cover a few.
Softball
Softball finished out their conference series with NC State with a solid win, 7-0, with consistent scoring throughout the game.

Celene Funke brought the funk with a 3 for 3 showing at the plate, with Sid Melton going 3 for 4 to add to the good day for the Cards on the basepaths.
Pearsall's squad was definitely consistent, leaving only one frame, the 3rd, without a score, and while putting up a pair in the 1st and 4th.
Rivalry week is back, and Softball will be participating with a mid-week Wednesday game against Kentucky in Lexington at 7pm.
Baseball
Baseball capitalized on a good start in Tallahassee to get the win over a quite good Florida State team, getting the win 6-1. All 6 Cards runs were on the board before FSU were able to get any successful offense. UofL was able to get a run in each of the 1st, 2nd, and 4th innings, with 3 scoring in the 3rd to reach their tally before FSU plated a run in the bottom of the 4th for their only offensive success of the day.
Baseball will also be participating in rivalry week, with a 6:30 start in Lexington on Tuesday.
Lacrosse
Paulie was able to make it to the Louisville Lacrosse Stadium to catch a thrilling game against a good

4, while the Cards are still looking for their 1st victory in conference after 4 competitions, with an overall 6-7 record.
We've said it before, but we knew this would be a challenging year for Louisville Lacrosse with the loss of so much talent after last year. Tessa Chad, who transferred in to continue to play for Scott Teeter has continued to be one of several bright spots for the Cards, scoring 5 in the contest. Stalwarts for the Cardinals, Madison Hoover and Jillian Balog each got hat tricks, both with the requisite 3 goals to reach that mark. Another 4 year Cardinal, Julia Wood picked up 1, along with freshmen, Alex McNicholas and Caroline Blalock.
VT got the hot start, quickly jumped out to a 4-0 lead, but UofL was able to then go no the 6-0 run to take a 2 goal lead. It would hold a lead through late in the 2nd half, but VT went on a 5-0 run to retake the lead, reaching their final tally, 15-13 at 4:01. The Cards would score one more, but it wouldn't be enough.
Lacrosse won't be participating in rivalry week as Kentucky doesn't have a Lacrosse team, but they will be playing next against UNC in chapel Hill Saturday at 3pm.
I Heard It On the Radio
The Cardinal Couple Radio Hour continued its series on sleep deprivation yesterday, with Paulie and regular guest Mike Gilpatrick in the studio after having made the drive back from Columbus. Case Hoskins and myself contributed by phone. As you might expect, most of the show concentrated on the WBB loss to Mississippi State and just how deplorable women's basketball officiating really is.
