ABOUT THE CARDINALS
Louisville got back in the win column on Monday night with a 1-0 victory at Florida Gulf Coast. Aboubacar Camara tallied his second goal of the season in the 54th minute and Ryan Troutman recorded a shutout in goal in his first action in a Louisville uniform.
Friday’s showdown with Pitt will be the fourth match this season for the Cardinals against a team ranked inside the top 10. Louisville defeated No. 10 Saint Louis 3-1 in the season opener before one-goal losses to No. 5 Kentucky and No. 7 Duke.
SERIES HISTORY
Louisville is 5-1-0 all-time against Pitt heading into Friday’s match. The Cardinals won the first five meetings between the two programs, but the Panthers were victorious in the most recent meeting, a 4-1 Pitt victory in October of 2020.
CAMARA CLIMBING THE ALL-TIME GOALS CHART
Junior forward Aboubacar Camara has been one of the country’s best goal scorers throughout his collegiate career.
Camara entered the 2022 campaign as the top returning goal scorer from last season among Power Five schools and his 66th minute strike in the season opener against Saint Louis moved him into a tie for 10th all-time in goals at Louisville.
The junior forward struck again in the win at Florida Gulf Coast and is now tied with Tim Kubel (2014-17) for ninth on Louisville’s career scoring list. His next tally will tie him with Brian Whitman (1980-82) for eighth.
