LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The changes in the college football schedule are happening fast and furious and it seems basketball will also be facing challenges.
The University of Louisville women's basketball team was slated to tipoff its season Wednesday, Nov. 25 against Middle Tennessee, but the Lady Raiders were forced to postpone the game because of positive COVID-19 test results and contact tracing within the Lady Raider bubble. The Lady Raiders also had to postpone a game with Vanderbilt.
This is the second change to the Cardinals' schedule this season. Bellarmine canceled its Dec. 6 game with the Cards last week.
Head coach Jeff Walz announced late Monday the Cardinals will now play at Southeast Missouri on Wednesday afternoon at 3 p.m. ET. The game will broadcast live on ESPN+.
This will be the third ever matchup between the Cardinals and the Redhawks and the first in Cape Girardeau. Louisville is 2-0 all-time against SEMO and the two teams last met on Nov. 10, 2017, when the Cardinals won 80-40 at the KFC Yum! Center in the first round of the preseason NIT.
