Louisville to face second Top-10 opponent this week
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — The University of Louisville women's soccer team is back in action and another top-10 matchup awaits. The Cardinals are set to take on second-ranked Virginia on Sunday afternoon in Charlottesville. The match will kick off at 2 p.m. ET and will be streamed on the ACC Network Extra.
This is set to be the second of three-straight games away from home for the Cardinals as they are on their second road trip of the season. So far in 2022, Louisville is 2-1-1 away from home and 1-1 against ranked opponents on the road. This will be the first time since 2019 that the Cardinals face two top-10 opponents within the same week. In 2019, the Cardinals faced #9 Vanderbilt and #4 North Carolina in the same week in September.
Graduate student Maisie Whitsett continues to have one of the best seasons of her career for the Cardinals in 2022. Through just eight games, she leads the team with four goals, three assists and 11 points. She has scored in back-to-back games twice this season and tallied at least a point in six of the eight games. Of the 10 goals the Cardinals have scored, Whitsett has been involved, directly or indirectly, in eight of them.
