Laurie Maxwell-Londot was Louisville's first volleyball All-American in 1991. The left-handed middle blocker made her presence known quickly, earning 1988 Metro Conference Freshman of the Year honors.

As a junior, the Metro Conference Player of the Year led the Cardinals to a league title in 1990 as Tournament MVP as UofL earned its first NCAA Tournament appearance in eight years. In 1991, she led the Cardinals to a repeat conference championship and another automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.

She won a gold medal in the 1991 Olympic Festival Games and was a three time GTE Academic All-American. She is still the career leader in kills with 1,545, hitting percentage .364, block solos with 183 and total blocks with 538.
