no link in list

Is it possible?

Here is my HTML

[catlist name=sponsors numberposts=0 content=yes title_tag=p title_class=titleclass]

Here is my css

/*Changes Title Font*/
p.titleclass a{
font-size: 2em;
color: black;
font-weight:bold;
}

/*Removes link*/
.titleclass{
pointer-events: none;
cursor: default;
}
