The University of Louisville lacrosse team continues their stretch of home games with a 1 p.m. contest against No. 14 Georgetown on Sunday, April 11th, at the U of L Lacrosse Stadium. The game has been designated as U of L's Friends of Jaclyn game, the organization that pairs pediatric cancer patients and teams who then provide support and encouragement as the child progresses through treatment. Emily, who was adopted by the lacrosse team, will be on hand to do the coin flip for the game. Emily's mom will be shaving her head at halftime.
The game against Georgetown will be broadcasted on tape-delay on WHAS with Sean Moth providing the play-by-play and Patty Norton handling the color commentary. The game will air on Monday, April 12th at 1:35 a.m.
Louisville and Georgetown met twice last season, including a 21-12 Hoyas' victory in the BIG EAST Tournament on April 24, 2009 in Washington D.C. Overall, the Cardinals are 0-3 against Georgetown and 0-2 at U of L Lacrosse Stadium.
In their last game, the Cardinals 7-4 lost to Loyola by the score of 17-10 to No. 13 Loyola (Md.). Bergan Foley tallied five goals while Katie Oliverio dished out three assists. Senior Ashley King had five draw controls to go along with four ground balls.
