LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- — Jae'Lyn Withers scored a career-high 20 points, David Johnson added 19 and Louisville defeated Prairie View A&M 86-64 Sunday night, winning its first three games of the season.
Withers made 8-of-10 shots from the floor and pulled down nine rebounds, eight off the defensive glass. He scored 12 in the first half. Johnson drained his lone 3-pointer in the first half, forging an 18-18 tie to spark a 17-5 run that pushed the Cardinals into the lead for good.
