HABUDA'S GOAL CARRIES CARDS TO 1-0 WIN OVER MOREHEAD
Isabella Habuda's follow up on a deflected shot on goal (or pass?) from Rachel Avant that hit the goal post at the 20 minute mark of the first half proved to be the only offense Louisville Women's Soccer needed Thursday night in a 1-0 win over Morehead in Lynn Stadium.
Habuda had a busy night for the Cards, taking five of UofL's 15 shots and two of their seven shots on goal. The sophomore from Belle River, Ont. scored her second goal of the season in a contest that was dominated by the Cards on both offense and defense.
Louisville (5-5-1) held the Eagles (4-7-1) to a mere four shots and no shots on goal... goalkeeper Taylor Bucklin and defenders Inger Katrine-Bjerke and Hannah Konermann all logging 90 minutes on defense and turning away all Eagles attempts to find the net.

Louisville returns to ACC play Sunday with a trip to Syracuse and then comes home to face #1 North Carolina, #22 Duke and #2 Florida State in a 11-day span before heading to play #3 Virginia.

VOLLEYBALL IN THE KFC YUM! CENTER TONIGHT

Louisville is undefeated (2-0) so far in ACC play and will face former Cardinal coach Leonid Yelin and his Syracuse squad that is 11-2 overall and also 2-0 in ACC matches.
The Cards have had strong production from outside hitters Erin Fairs and Aniah Philo during the win streak and freshman libero Molly Sauer is a strong candidate for ACC Volleyball Freshman of the Year.
