Cardinals Hit the Road to Battle NC State
October 19, 2022 | Women's Soccer
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The University of Louisville women's soccer team is back on the road for its final road trip of the regular season. The Cardinals are heading to the research triangle for two games this week and it kicks off with a Thursday matchup against NC State. The Cardinals and Wolfpack will square off in Raleigh at 7 p.m. ET and the match will be streamed on the ACC Network Extra.
The Cardinals offense attack has been led by graduate student forward Maisie Whitsett this season as she has impacted eight of the Cardinals 12 goals this season. She leads the team with four goals, three assists and 11 points and had a free kick that was initially saved but the rebound was put in for the goal.
Head coach Karen Ferguson-Dayes is closing in on another milestone in her 23rd season at the helm. She is the program's winningest coach and she currently has 199 career wins and is one shy of 200.
