Louisville basketball outlasts Notre Dame for 13th ACC win

By Harry Barsan

Louisville went on the road and scrapped their way to a victory over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

This is only the third win at the Joyce Center since Louisville and Notre Dame have been conference opponents, and it also snaps a four-game skid against the Irish.

Notre Dame got out to the better start, taking a five-point lead and shutting down the Cardinals offense.

Reyne Smith finally kicked off scoring after almost two-and-a-half minutes on back-to-back three-pointers.

Louisville struggled, however, to keep up against Notre Dame’ fast start.
