LAX CARDS DOWNED BY #15 IRISH IN SOUTH BEND 18-3
Not a great day for the Louisville Lacrosse squad Thursday on the Notre Dame campus.
The Cards fell behind early 8-0 after one period to the Fighting Irish and the onslaught continued in the second quarter...as the home team took an 11-1 lead to the halftime locker room. The LaxCards lone goal came from Maggie McMahon...five minutes into second period action.

The Cards made a switch at goal keeper to start the second half, bringing in sophomore Hayley Richards and were able to keep the Notre Dame scoring machine a bit at bay in the second half...losing the half only 7-2 to the Irish, but the defeat in the final game of the season, put the Cards at 2-8 in conference and 6-9 for the season.
It effectively ends the 2025-26 campaign for UofL Lax, since only eight teams participate in the post season conference tournament and Louisville finished 11th out of the 13 teams that play ACC WLax. They only bettered Cal 1-8 and Florida State 0-10.
6-9 isn't likely to get them in the NCAA Tournament. 29 teams participate in it, and UofL is ranked at #48.
A lot of questions remain about the direction of the squad and next year could possibly be decision making time about the leadership of the program.
