Cardinals on a roll
Louisville extended its winning ways to eight straight
games by sweeping a doubleheader from Akron Tuesday, 3-1 in the first
game and 6-2 in the nightcap.
The streak is a season high and the wins end the Cards'
home season with a record of 27-6 in games at Cardinal Stadium.
U of L visits Conference USA foe East Carolina for a
Thursday-Friday-Saturday series to close out the regular season.
Louisville swept its fourth
C-USA series of the season last weekend by taking all three games from UAB.
The Cards were rewarded with
a No. 28 ranking in the Collegiate Baseball Newspaper poll and moved
within a half-game of Conference USA leader Houston.
Senior third baseman MIKE
BUDAK hit two home runs in Sunday's 7-1 win, giving him four homers in
the series. He hit .438 (7-for-16) last week with nine RBIs.
Sophomore outfielder MARK
JURICH hit a grand slam in Saturday's 12-3 win, becoming the fourth
different Louisville player to hit a grand slam this season. MORGAN
BOJORUQEZ hit one earlier in the week at Evansville.
Junior outfielder DAVE
WILLIAMS, Jr. has a 15-game hitting streak in which he is 24-for-60 with
11 RBIs, 17 runs scored, four doubles,
two triples and five stolen bases.
Freshman left-handed pitcher
ZACH JACKSON picked up two more wins last week to give him nine, one off
the school record for single season victories, held by Scott Reburn
(1984). The nine wins are the most ever by a U of L freshman. Louisville
needs just three more wins to tie the school record of 38, set in 1980.
