The Cardinals dropped to seventh place after two losses last week, but are still in a position to make the conference tournament in two weeks. There were a few standouts for the Cardinals last week. Josh Morgan had a season-high 23 points and a career-high 3-pointers made with seven in UIW's game against Nicholls last week.
