Women's Soccer to have Five Games Broadcast on ESPN3
July 29, 2015 | Women's Soccer
The Atlantic Coast Conference released the Olympic sports broadcast schedule for the 2015 fall season on Wednesday and the Louisville women's soccer team has five matches that will air on ESPN3.
"We are thrilled with the amount of games that will be televised on ESPN3," said head coach Karen Ferguson-Dayes. "Anytime you can showcase women's soccer games in front of a national audience it is fantastic not only for our University but for the growth and development of soccer. With the World Cup breaking every viewership record this past summer, we hope to capitalize on that now with a captive audience."
The Cardinals are scheduled to have five matches on ESPN3, starting with the Sept. 24 ACC home opener against Miami at Dr. Mark and Cindy Lynn Stadium at 7:00 p.m. ESPN3 will also televise four consecutive Cardinal matches, starting with the Oct. 11 match in Lynn Stadium against the Duke Blue Devils at 1:00 p.m. The Cardinals will then host the defending national champions Florida State on Oct. 17 for an ESPN3 Televised match at 7:00 p.m.
Louisville will then appear on ESPN3 in two away matches, starting with the Oct. 22 match at Virginia at 7:00 p.m. The Cards' match at NC State on Oct. 25 will also be televised on ESPN3 at 1:00 p.m.
Overall, fans will have access to more contests involving league teams than ever before as the ACC's media rights holders will distribute at least 169 events live this fall, surpassing the previous record of 122 set last year. In addition to the 122 events announced Wednesday as part of the ACC's Olympic Sport conference package, 54 women's soccer games will be broadcast, including the ACC semifinals on ESPN3 and the championship game on ESPNU.
The Cardinals begin the season on Aug. 21 against Wright State at Dr. Mark and Cindy Lynn Stadium.
