Senior night here at Riggs. 8 seniors were honored, including stars Diego Campos and Oliver Shannon. 


The Tigers had a nice bounce back, winning 3 straight after back-to-back late, heartbreaking losses at Wake and againsr Notre Dame.

Louisville out to an early 1-0 lead after a pretty 2 v 1 inside the box. Campos did not start for some reason. I'm looking into that. He cam in right after the goal.  


TIGERS TRAIL 1-0 WITH 28 MINUTES LEFT IN HALF.

Still 1-0 with 18 minutes left in the half. Tigers have had several chances, though.

UGH Louisville took a 2-1 lead on an incredible set piece from about 25 yards out, upper 90 in the left corner of the net. That was a world class goal. The Tigers have dominated the game for the most part, leading Louisville in shots 16-4, but the Cardinals have certainly made the most of their opportunities. The Tigers have had several shots from point blank range either go right at the keeper or saved by a position player.

Tigers continue to come inches away from tying the game over and over. They still trail 2-1 with 17:30 left.

Tigers lose 2-1. It's their 4th loss of the season and 3rd by a goal in the second half or later against a ranked team. The Tigers dominated and out-shot Louisville 21-5 but just could not find the net on chance after chance. They will still be no worse than a 6 seed and host the first round of the ACC Tournament against either Syracuse or BC, both of which they beat this season. They won at Syracuse just last week.


I'll have post-game interview with Mike Noonan posted shortly.
