UofL WBB Sends Four to USA 3x3 National Championship

Bionca Dunham, Jazmine Jones, Mykasa Robinson, and Seygan Robins have been selected to represent Louisville's team in the USA 3x3 National Championship.  The quartet will go up against representatives from other schools with hopes of claiming a national title.

The two-day event is set to be held in Las Vegas from  May 3-4.

Preliminary rounds will be May 3 from 3:00-10:30 p.m., and May 4 from 9:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m.  The elimination round will start at 6:00 p.m., on May 4 with the final set to tip-off at 10:00 p.m.

Every contestant in the event will be eligible for consideration for the 2019 USA Women's Basketball Pan American Games 3x3 team.

Admission is free to the event.  Only the championship game is set to be aired for viewing and can be seen online at usab.com/live.

Sweet Summertime

Finals wrapped up yesterday on campus, freeing the students until the fall semester begins in late August.  Minus a few spring sports still playing student-athletes also get a short while of freedom before reporting back to their respective facilities before the fall semester begins.

Balancing school, sports, and life can be quite a strenuous task.  The student-athletes will have a chance to enjoy well-deserved time off.

For us at Cardinal Couple, we will continue to cover the sports that are ongoing and will scramble to find summertime topics to discuss each day and on the show.

Paulie gave us a taste of what the Worldwide Cardinal Couple Radio Hour quizzes will look like.  How did you do?  There is plenty of time to study up on the sports, players, records, and stats!

While many of you will be involved in Derby activities around here and the like (including us, we'll be off the air this Saturday), the UofL WBB staff will be out looking for the next great class of players to come to Louisville. They leave Friday to hit the gyms in the first live recruiting period of the off-season.

Don't be surprised to see Cardinal coaches at event across the nation. The Boo Williams Invitational in Virginia is a huge one. The Adidas Gauntlet in Dallas another. Milwaukee has the Windy City Classic, The Clash will be held in Cincinnati and Under Armour has an event going on in Manheim, PA. 

Happy Wednesday and Go Cards!
