A Message From Coach Walz
March 05, 2014 | Women's Basketball
March 5, 2014
Head coach Jeff Walz hit the recruiting trail early Tuesday morning to ensure Louisville women's basketball maintains its status as a national brand.
Before he left, the seventh-year head coach wanted to express his deep gratitude for all of the fans who were part of the record-breaking crowd in Monday night's game against Connecticut, that capped a phenomenal 2013-14 regular season and celebrated the Cardinals' decorated and highly successful senior class.
Support at games has been remarkable, as Louisville was ranked in the top-three nationally in attendance each of the last four years. More impressively is the fact that the Cardinals have averaged more than 9,000 fans per game for the fourth-consecutive season.
Below is a message from Coach Walz:
Card Nation -
Despite the disappointing outcome of our match up with No. 1 UConn Monday night, I could not be more pleased with the outpouring of support given to our program by the fans.
The pageantry of our Inaugural Native American night, the bittersweet emotions that come with celebrating our four amazing seniors on Senior Night and the electrifying atmosphere created by the largest crowd to ever see a women's basketball game at the University of Louisville made for an unforgettable night.
On behalf of the team, our staff, the athletic department and the University of Louisville, I just want to take a moment give a heartfelt thank you for joining us in the World's Most Spectacular Arena - the KFC Yum! Center for a very special event. I hope we can count on you for your continued support of Louisville Women's Basketball in the coming years, beginning with the NCAA Regional we are hosting March 30 and April 1, 2014.
I also would like to personally thank our most loyal season ticket holders who have either witnessed every game in person or missed only one or two games.
Again, thank you for your unrivaled support, and Go Cards!
