Joyner averaged 9.2 points and 7.5 rebounds per game for the Tigers last season. She played her first three collegiate seasons at East Carolina and was named 2023 AAC Freshman of the Year and All-AAC First Team in 2025.

Her career high was a 32 point performance against Howard with ECU in 2024. She had two 20+ rebound games in her time in Greenville.
Joyner will plug in and add physicality, versatility & depth in the frontcourt for a Louisville team that is already seen to be preseason Top 15. The Cards will get the campaign going on November 2 against Bellarmine at the KFC Yum! Center.
