This week saw Louisville Track and Field athletes begin their quest for national glory at the NCAA East Region Preliminary meet. The Cards are in Jacksonville, Florida, where competition began on Wednesday. Thursday saw two Cardinals qualify for the NCAA meet in Austin when Synclair Savage placed 9th in the long jump and Aliyah Welter placed 11th in the pole vault. Savage's qualification is her second consecutive while this will be the third straight season in which Welter has advanced to the national level. One more athlete on the women's side will compete for a chance to go to Austin, Texas for the NCAA National Championship meet today. Katie Martin finished fourth in her heat and 12th overall in the first round of the 400m hurdles. She will participate in the quarterfinals with a chance to move on.

Jared wrote a bit about the academic announcements for the spring on Thursday, and one more honor came through yesterday. Allegra Catalano, a senior on the 2023 lacrosse team, was named to the At-Large Academic All-District team by the College Sports Communicators. Players must be a starter or key reserve and maintain a 3.5 GPA. Catalano started in 13 games for the Cards this season and scored 12 goals. Off the field, Catalano served on the Student Athletic Advisory Committee while working toward her degree in Sports Administration with a minor in Business Administration. She graduated this month with a cumulative 3.9598 GPA. Congratulations to Allegra!

Cardinal Couple Radio Hour Podcast


I'm out this weekend as I'm "back home again in Indiana" as I am every Memorial Day weekend. It's time to watch cars go fast and turn left. Daryl is also out, playing golf with Peyton Siva. At least that's the excuse she gave us. The show will go on, though, as Paulie, Jeff, and Jared hold down the fort. As always, you can check out the live stream of the show by going to the Cardinal Couple YouTube page and clicking on the live video. Jeff usually creates that about an hour before the show, which officially starts at 11 AM Eastern. If the live time doesn't work for you, there are plenty of playback options, so be sure to check out whichever is best for you!
