LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - Terrence Williams scored 21 points and David Padgett had 20 in Louisville's 76-63 win over San Francisco on Thursday night.
Antonio Kellogg scored 14 points and made seven rebounds for the Dons (4-11).
It was the seventh loss in a row for San Francisco.
Both teams started using a full-court press, forcing a fast pace but poor shooting kept the score low. The Cardinals and Dons combined for 18 field goals and shot 30 percent from the floor in the first half.
San Francisco got its first lead of the game, 18-16, on a 3-pointer by Danny Cavic with 8:55 left in the first half, but the Cardinals (9-4) led at halftime 26-23.
There were 10 lead changes in the second half before Louisville locked the lead for good, after a 3-pointer by Jerry Smith made it 58-56 with 7:17 left.
Smith was one of three freshmen to start for the Cardinals, along with Edgar Sosa and Earl Clark. Sosa had 18 points and eight assists.
Alan Wiggins led the Dons with eight rebounds. Williams had nine rebounds for the Cardinals.
