THE CLEMSON-LOUISVILLE SERIES
Clemson trails Louisville in the all-time series, 14-3, which spans back to the 1979-80 season. In the last clash, the Tigers fell in overtime to the Cardinals, 70-68 (Mar. 6, 2025), in the second round of the ACC Women’s Basketball Tournament.

A WIN WOULD MEAN
A win would be Coach Poppie’s third win against a ranked opponent and his third-ranked win at home.
A win would be Coach Poppies’ 1st win against Louisville.
A win would be the program’s first win against Louisville since the 1993-94 season (snapping Louisville’s 14-game win streak).

LAST TIME OUT
A 16-point, 10-rebound performance from senior guard Mia Moore led Clemson to a 78-38 win over American Thursday night at Littlejohn Coliseum. Junior guard/forward Rusne Augustinaite (16 points), senior guard Rachael Rose (11 points), and graduate forward Demeara Hinds (10 points) joined Moore as the four Tigers in double figures. Clemson knocked down a season-high 14 3-pointers, just one shy of matching the program record of 15 (N.C. State, Dec. 29, 2024).
