LOUISVILLE, Ky. - If the Louisville women's basketball program is to go on a run in the NCAA Tournament, they'll have to do so without Skylar Jones.

Head coach Jeff Walz announced Friday that the reserve guard will not suit up for the remainder of the Cardinals' season, and that she is no longer with the team.

"She will not be participating (in the NCAA Tournament)," Walz said. "She's no longer with the team, so we've just parted ways. It's best for both parties."

The 6-foot-0 junior guard/forward had been a key piece of Louisville's rotation during the 2025-26 season. Playing in all 34 games up to this point while making one start, Jones was averaging the fifth-most points on the team at 8.4 per game, as well as the most steals on the team at 1.5 per game. She was also averaging 2.9 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game, while shooting 44.6 from the field and 30.8 percent on three-point tries.

Despite losing her production, Walz doesn't believe it will have a massive impact on Louisville's guard rotation.

"I think if you go back to the past month, it's really not going to change much," he said. "In our ACC Finals Mack played all 45 minutes. Yeah, I'm not concerned about that with Reyna, Imari, Taj, Mack. Bender can step in there and play some minutes for us. Laura can move to the three if needed.

"We have plenty of players. I mean, at this time of year, look what Sienna men did with five. You're just putting your best ones out there. Unless they're in foul trouble or they're about to just keel over and die because they're exhausted, you keep playing them. It's not you're saving them for the next game. So I've never been one to just sub to sub. We have plenty of depth with Imari coming off the bench and Reyna."

Jones joined the program last offseason as a transfer from Arizona, and she was one of UA's most productive players that season. Appearing in 32 games while starting 25, she averaged 10.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.6 steals, all while shooting 49.2 percent from the floor and 35.2 percent on three-point attempts.

He sophomore season came on the heel of a productive true freshman campaign during the 2023-24 season. That year, she played in 32 games with 15 starts, and put 7.2 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game. She was named a Pac-12 All-Freshman Team honorable mention for her efforts.

Third-seeded and No. 13 AP ranked Louisville (27-7, 15-3 ACC) will get their run in the NCAA Tournament started against 14th-seeded America East champion Vermont (25-7, 13-3 AE). Tip-off between the Cardinals and Catamounts is set for Saturday, Mar. 21 at 12:00 p.m. EST from the KFC Yum! Center.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — A jaw-dropping moment at a Louisville wrestling event that was not part of the show landed a 22-year-old in the hospital.

During the main event at Ohio Valley Wrestling's weekly TV show, Rise, on Thursday night, a wrestler jumped from the top rope and landed on referee Dallas Edwards in a planned spot in the match, but what happened next caught everyone off guard.

Video shows 15 seconds after Dallas Edwards hit the mat, his body begins to uncontrollably shake. He's suffering a seizure.

"I'm not upset about the bump. Dallas knows how to fall, and he has trained as a wrestler," said Tammy Edwards, Dallas' mom. "What I'm concerned about is the lack of preparation OVW had when a medical emergency like this happened. Nobody stopped the match. They are wrestling over top of my child as he seizes."

While Dallas Edwards continues to convulse, a wrestler drags him to the side of the ring and appears to kick him. On camera, Dallas Edwards is shaking for 45 seconds before he's moved out of frame and the match stops.

Tammy Edwards said the video is tough to watch.

"How do you treat another human being like that?" Tammy Edwards said.

She said her son is awake, talking and in the Intensive Care Unit at Norton Audubon Hospital for monitoring of a brain bleed and a concussion.

OVW officials said there was a medic at ringside during the match, but the very real moment in a world set in story caught the talent and staff off guard. They didn't know at first how badly Dallas Edwards was hurt.

OVW official Al Snow acknowledged in a statement an "unforeseen breakdown in communication contributed to a delay in stopping the match and concluding the show" because, normally, the referee is the point of communication, the deciding factor when to stop a match.

"In this unprecedented situation, the person who would normally make that assessment was the one who needed assistance," said Snow, former WWE superstar and head of OVW wrestling school and TV show.

In a post online the company said, "OVW takes the health and well-being of all our performers extremely seriously, and as a company we are all distraught to see an injury to one of our own."

"If somebody doesn't respond to you checking on him, the match stops right then," Tammy Edwards said.

Pro wrestling is heavily regulated by the state of Kentucky with strict rules on when a match must be stopped for blood, requiring a report and video of the incident to be turned over to the Kentucky Boxing and Wrestling Commission with in five business days. However, there is no requirement currently to stop a match for an injury without blood.

After Thursday's incident, Snow said the company are reviewing their procedures and updating several in-ring and ringside protocols, like updating communication systems, additional referee training and expand ringside response.

Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg has an ownership stake in OVW. He bought into the company in 2020 prior to winning office.

He spoke of his involvement in wrestling Thursday hours before the incident at OVW during a press event congratulating students at Grace James Academy on their track and field championship.

But Friday, a city spokesperson tried to distance Greenberg from the company.

"Mayor Greenberg is no longer involved in the operations of OVW," Press Secretary Matt Mudd wrote in an email to WDRB News. "We are, of course, sorry to hear about this injury."

Control has changed hands four times in the last 8 years at OVW with new owners investing. The majority stake is currently held by Morley Sports Management Limited, a sports company based in Great Britain. Former WWE superstar Al Snow lives in Louisville and heads up the wrestling school and OVW TV show.

Tammy Edwards said she found out her son was hurt from a fan in the stands when it happened, who is also a family friend.

"Nobody from the promotion, from OVW, contacted me to let me know my son was in an ambulance on the way to the hospital," Tammy Edwards said.

OVW is one of the most well-respected independent wrestling company in the world, having trained some of the biggest names in the game over the last 30 years like John Cena, Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar and current WWE Champion Cody Rhodes.

Tammy Edwards said when she looks at the video of what happened to her son, that prestige is not what she sees.

"What I saw in that video...nobody cared about my son."

Dallas Edwards grew up loving wrestling. He paused a budding Hollywood career to follow his dreams in sports entertainment. Dallas Edwards was a child actor. One of his biggest movie credits was the role of Ken, Owen Wilson's son, in the comedy, "Masterminds."

Friday night on his Facebook page, Dallas Edwards said he's made the decision to take some time off to "get my life and health back in good spirits." He also said he is grateful for all of the support, but asks his coworkers to get training on how to help someone experiencing a medical emergency.

"Being in the position before, it’s very important to be educated in all scenarios relating to injury, illness, or condition in the ring, especially when we’re performing," Dallas Edwards said in his post.

Dallas Edwards was not released from the hospital Saturday as hoped, and is being held for continued observation of his brain bleed.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - The Louisville football program has landed yet another high caliber in-state Class of 2027 prospect, this time getting a commitment from Jordan Haskins.

Here is Louisville Cardinals On SI's full evaluation:

Prospect: Jordan HaskinsPosition: SafetyMeasurables: 5-foot-11, 180 poundsSchool: Lexington (Ky.) Bryan StationTop Offers: Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, Virginia Tech247Sports Composite Rating (Nat'l Rank): 0.9050 (318th)

Frame: While Haskins' positional height and length is right around average, he makes up with a very good all-around muscle tone. Not only that, but it seems like he could easy add some more muscle to his frame - especially in his upper body and core.

Athleticism: Haskins' best athletic trait is by far his speed. As evidenced by his 11.32 100-Meter Dash time as a sophomore, he's got great burst and sustained open field speed. It's aided by some good north-south footwork, while is lateral footwork is about average. Play strength is decent and is above average for a defensive back.

Instincts: While he can play both cornerback and safety, Haskins shines at the latter. He's got fantastic feel for his zone, as he does a great job of reading the quarterback at all times while also adjusting to receivers approaching his zone. Haskins takes great angles when trying to adjust to the ball and its intended target mid-air, as well as when he's closer to the line of scrimmage trying to pursue the ball carrier. Speaking of which, against the run and on blitzes, he has extremely good reaction time and downhill burst, which produces top notch closing speed. While he's not asked to play a ton of man coverage, his film shows that he does a solid job of maintaining minimal separation early in the route (although fluidity in his hips is hit-or-miss), and has good timing when trying to make plays on the ball.

Polish: It goes without saying that Haskins is an extremely football player and overall athlete. On top of playing defensive back, he's taken reps at every offensive skill position (QB, RB, WR), and is deadly as a punt and kick return man thanks to his speed. He can be a little lax in his back pedal when playing a deep zone, but this has flashed when playing press man coverage. He's also not afraid to get physical and play in the box when the scheme calls for it. He squares up almost every times when making a tackle, although it does look a bit clunky at times because of his lateral footwork.

Bottom Line: Overall, this is a great pickup for Louisville's defense. Haskins is not only supremely athletic, he's very cerebral and knows what it takes to be the last line of defense. He'll have to clean up a couple things, but the path to potential early playing time is there.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Gas prices in west central Kentucky climbed by eight cents this week to an average of $2.613 per gallon, according to an AAA release.

What You Need To Know

The average price per gallon across the U.S. also went up this week to $2.99, AAA added. Today's national average is 12 cents more than a month ago but 10 cents fewer than a year ago.

AAA said amid the recent conflict in Iran, any disruption to its oil infrastructure could have consequences as it's a key player in the oil market. If the Strait of Hormuz, which connects the Persian Gulf to open waters, is blocked, it could send a ripple effect across the world.

"Oil is part of a global market, which means when there's a shortfall in one part of the world, it affects other parts, too," AAA said.

In addition, AAA said refineries are starting to produce summer-blend gasoline, which contains pricier additives to reduce evaporation during warmer months. Demand is expected to keep climbing as spring break season kicks off and more drivers hit the road.

AAA added that new data from the Energy Information Administration shows gasoline demand decreased last week from 8.74 million barrels per day to 8.73 million. Domestic gasoline supply also declined from 255.8 million barrels to 254.8 million. Gasoline production decreased last week to 9.2 million barrels per day.

The national average per kilowatt hour of electricity at a public EV charging station remains at 38 cents.

Here's a look at the average price of unleaded self-serve gasoline in various cities, according to AAA:
