Friday Cardinal Couple -- Soccer wins-...Field Hockey @ Trager ...Volleyball in Dallas

FRIDAY CARDINAL COUPLE

***CARDINAL COUPLE SCOREBOARD***
UPDATE:

Field Hockey wins at a soggy Trager Field 2-1 over Temple! Overtime win after a weather delay! Much more on this in the Saturday CARDINAL COUPLE edition and on our radio show Saturday. 9-2 Field Hockey record now. Can I get a WOOO-HOOO??

- Women's Soccer downs SMU 4-2

- Another Battle of the Birds: Temple Field Hockey in town

- Volleyball travels to SMU

Charlyn Corral scored twice in Louisville's 4-2 win over AAC Conference foe SMU last night in Dallas.

The victory puts the Cards at 7-3-1 on the season and atop the conference with a 3-0 record.

SMU took the early lead on UofL scoring five minutes into the contest. The Cards roared back, though...getting a goal from Erin Yenney three minutes later on an 22 yd. blast. Louisville took the lead for good with 33 minutes left in the first half...Casey Whitfield assisting with a cross to Corral...who sent a worm-burner into the net to make it 2-1. WIth 10 minutes to go in the period, Katie Walz received a pass from Christine Exeter and sent one skyward to the top right corner to increase the Louisville lead by two. The half ended with the Cards holding a 3-1 advantage.

Louisville pushed the edge to 4-1 ten minutes into the final stanza...Corral getting another score on assists from Exeter and Caroline Kimble. SMU ended the scoring with fifteen minutes remaining.

Cardinal goalie Paige Brown had two saves on the night. UofL is on a three-game win streak and travels to Houston to face the Cougars on Sunday.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

#17 Louisville Field Hockey puts their for game win streak on the line tonight against the #18 Temple Owls. Start time is 6 p.m. in this important BIG EAST Conference match-up.

The Flock is one of three unbeaten teams in BIG EAST Conference play. Connecticut and Temple are also 2-0 atop the standings.

Temple enters (or is it enter the Temple?) with identical record as Justine Sowry's stick swingers...8-2 and on a five game win streak that has them outscoring the competition 18-4. The Cards will do well to contain the Owls Amber Youtz...who is tied for first in the BIG EAST and third nationally with 10 goals on the season.

Louisville's Alyssa Voelmle, the BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week has seven goals on the year...Erin Schneidtmiller and Shannon Sloss have six each.

It's special edition UofL car magnet night...and free admission. Head on out to the Trager and root for UofL!

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Volleyball is in Dallas for their first ever meet up with the SMU Mustangs. Anne Kordes' squad (6-6) runs into a bunch of horses that have won three of their last four and sport a 8-5 record. They're also second in the AAC with a .237 hitting percentage and third in kills.

Louisville will look to Maya McClendon to continue the recent Freshman of the Week honors and performance she's been displaying on the hardwood. Louisville rides a four game winning streak in the Mustang's corral and was the only team in the AAC with two wins over opponents with winning records.

This one volleys up at 8 p.m. and you can catch all the exciting action on Crescent Hill Radio with Jeff McAdams, Timmy the Intern and Lola Arslanbeckova providing the call. ( JUST KIDDING...but we will have a full recap in the Saturday edition of Cardinal Couple and will review it on our Saturday radio show on CHR...)

Wednesday Cardinal Couple -- Women Golf finishes 5th

.
WEDNESDAY CARDINAL COUPLE

- Women's Golf finishes 5th in Ram Classic

- Spend it if you've got it

- Fashion do's and don't

Cards finish 5th in Ram Classic

The University of Louisville women's golf team finished tied for fifth in the Colonel Wollenberg's Ptarmigan Ram Classic on Tuesday afternoon in Fort Collins, Colorado. ( For the rest of the article, we will refer to the event as the Ram Classic). The Cardinals shot a 307 in the final round to finish with a total score of 896. Texas Tech won the event with a score of 860.

Sophomore Emily Haas finished tied at 10th with a 54 hole score of 220. She fired a 76 on the final day.

Sophomores Katie Petrino, Sara Karlsson, junior Tara Lyons and senior Candace Wiley also participated in the Ram Classic. Their 54 hole scores:

Petrino 226 tied for 24th
Lyons 226 " " " " "
Karlsson 227 tied for 30th
Wiley 223 tied for 56th

Louisville returns home to host the Cardinal Cup at the Cardinal Club in Simpsonville beginning Monday, Sept., 17th.

Funding not always a sure thing

The University of Louisville funds over 25 different athletic teams and squads each year. Whether it's sending the football team to Pittsburgh or the golf team to Colorado, players must be transported, lodged, fed and cared for. Louisville is one of the lucky NCAA Division I schools in terms of a healthy CAF Fund, donation systems and financial sponsorship and backing. We're thankful for that...we wouldn't want to see Shoni and the Lady Cards hitch-hiking on I-65 trying to get to South Bend for a game.

Economic times are tough, though...and not all universities share in the Cardinals' good fortunes. We provide the link below about Tennessee cutting 5 million dollars from their athletic budget. Not as a slap at U.T, but merely an example of how these tough economic times are affecting everyone and how fortunate Louisville is to have solid and stable funding.

Ecomonic hardship forces cutbacks

Fashion Do's and Don't

Finally, Timmy the Intern has come across some style and fashion tips for those of us over 55. He also submitted photos, but we're going to let you come up with your own visual images of these. He suggests you avoid these fashion "fails":

- Nose ring and bifocals
- Spiked hair and bald spots
- Pierced tongue and dentures
- Miniskirts and support hose
- Ankle bracelets and corn pads
- Speedos and cellulite
- Unbuttoned floral shirts and heart monitor
- Midriff shirts and midriff bulge
- Pierced nipples that hang below the waist
- Bikinis and liver spots
- Belly button ring and gall bladder surgery scar
- Short shorts and varicose veins
- In line skates and a walker
- Thongs and Depends

Have a great Wednesday and we're currently taking bids on cutting the CARDINAL COUPLE lawns...Bill the Goat has gone on strike and the corporate lawnmower has stopped working after the S.E.P. School of Mechanical Dynamics students disassembled and rebuilt it last week.

RIGHT SIDE OF THE SITE

Welcome to the right side of the site! Table for two? Or would you like a seat at the bar? Over here, you'll find schedules, results, pictures, characters, notices, links and other ennui and general nonsense we offer and come across. You can find out more about women's sports by following us... by reading daily ! Of course, they've shunned us at UofL and bulliedsome of our former writers but we go on anyway.. It takes a great person to attack someone dying of kidney disease and suffering hypoxema..Please don't double park or take up two spaces while you're here and tip your server !

Who we are and what we do

We are an independent website that covers the joy and excitement of UofL women's sports. We're not about birds here, or trysts with other like-minded couples or major league baseball. We write about women's sports at the University of Louisville. We are non-profit, we run no ads and don't ask you for fees and our writers volunteer their services. We have no premium boards or fee-based reads. We are "daily". Any questions, comments or observations can be left in the comments section at the bottom of any article or sent directly to Paulie at: cardinalcouple@twc.com .. Thank you for reading. As we like to say..."You ARE Cardinal Couple! We never forget that and we appreciate you" !!

PEOPLE OF THESE PAGES

Case Hoskins writes here Saturdays and engineers our podcasts when he isn't busy getting muddy, moving to a new house, field dressing deer. or saying "Yes, dear" to lovely Lindsay his wife.. He's also co-conspirator on the Cardinal Couple Radio Hour Podcast with Jeff -- when he has an Internet connection. consider him our soccer expert here at CARDINAL COUPLE....we just have to keep him away from WSOC head coach KFD. During the day he helps blueprint and design better mouse-traps or fancy-schmancy buildings and stuff. Another one of them engineer types. Known for his love of the Seattle Seahawks and dislike of games that end in ties...he adds a voice of reason, intelligence and rationality to THE CARDINAL COUPLE RADIO HOUR PODCASTS. ( Or so he thinks...) Truth told, he's probably a candidate for smartest one of this bunch of hoodlums, outlaws and ne'er do wells...but don't tell him that. Often mistaken for NFL quarterback Andrew Luck...we're 99% sure that ISN'T Bobby Petrino sitting to his left. . Free to a good home that will give him a bath, something to argue about and some Rice-a-Roni.

CO-FOUNDER AND CO-OWNER

The other co-owner and voice of reason....the lovely Sonja...who returns to us on a permanent basis after what can be called an "interesting" time at Rivals. In her words..."you work, slave, research and study for hours and build a site... a women's board. You spend hours on a three column article and several of the readers decide to take aim at you when all you're trying to do is enlighten. I've never seen so many mis-spellings of Louisville WBB players names anywhere...which made me think I was dealing with third graders over there... I have decided to stay off that street and source from here on out and I'm so glad to be back with those who love and appreciate me... not with haters and self-anointed experts " An avid fan of native gardening, hiking and the Smoky Mountains....she loves German potato pancakes and Led Zeppelin....and reminds you to plant native species. I've only seen her mad once (when she was ready to punch out another woman writer who was spreading lies about her) and I've got a feeling that might be a typhoon you want to steer clear of. One of the original writers on the site (with Paulie and David Watson), she has returned. Not as a columnist, but as a proof-reader, confidant and one to bounce thoughts and ideas off of. She's tired of guys with very limited women's basketball knowledge but huge egos calling her out when they are usually chauvinistic, and can be compared to the dog outside barking at something he can't see...We welcome her back and know she'll enjoy the calm waters here. You've got nothing you need to prove or defend with us....you are among those who love you.

About the photos...

CARDINAL COUPLE uses photos from all sources in the daily columns that we present to you. If we've used a photo you have taken and want published credit it for it...just contact us and we'll be glad to do so. Shoot, we might even write a feature article about you and call your Mom and tell her what a good son or daughter you are. WE avoid pictures that may be subject to copyright. Our legal advisors are busy enough chasing ambulances and wheelchairs when they're not trying to figure out trifecta plays at Churchill. Some of the photos are actually taken by the staff of CARDINAL COUPLE. (When we can get the camera away from the chimps). Paulie uses his cell phone to take pictures, too. You have been warned. Please realize that the captions that go with the photos are sometimes parodies. It's up to you to figure out which ones are and aren't. We can't spoon feed everything to you, you know... Jared Anderson is our main photographer and we have loved his work (even his selfies) for many years. Congratulations if you made it this far in your reading! We know...reading stuff like this can be pretty boring but WE have to put it on the site somewhere so that we can say..."hey, there is disclaimer on the site" in case some bozo decides that they want to sue us or something. Like we have any money. We're so poor we can't even pay attention. We even owe bums money.

I was walking down this road once years ago and I saw this guy chopping down a tree. It was hot, the guy was really sweating and I stopped to watch a while. He finally took a break, cracked a can of beer and then asked me if I had a gun. I hesitated before answering but finally told him that I didn't. He said: "That's a darn shame. I'm cutting down this tree because it's my neighbor's and I'm really pissed off at him right now. I was going to just shoot his sorry a$$...but I decided to do this instead. I'm having second thoughts...though." Sometimes, there just aren't enough trees... (I've never chose that particular walking route since..) .

If I'd taken a picture of that guy working on that tree, I'd been glad to share it with the entire world. That's the way WE see other photos out there. Share 'em and create through exposure and appreciation. We provide credit to the photographer when we feel it's needed. We also pay our taxes on time...
