Next up for Syracuse is a second matchup at Louisville. That game takes place on Sunday and starts at noon eastern. 

Syracuse outshot Louisville 32 to 18, including 16 to four in the second half. Only half of Louisville's shots were on goal, while 26 of Syracuse's 32 shots were on goal. As a result, Asa Goldstock only needed to make three saves in total on the afternoon. 

The game was the Megan and Meaghan show for Syracuse. Megan Carney and Meaghan Tyrrell each had 10 points, the first time in program history more than player hit the 10 point mark in the same game. The 10 points were a career high for each and tied for the fourth most in a single game at Syracuse. Both had seven goals, which tied for second in a single game in program history. Freshman Emma Ward added three points of her own.

Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more.
