Louisville has won four of the last five matches in the series against Kentucky, including a 2-1 triumph in Lexington last season behind Tim Kubel's game-winner in the 79th minute. Tuesday will mark the Cardinals' first home match against the Wildcats since dropping a 1-0 decision in 2012 at Cardinal Park.
Leading the way for head coach Ken Lolla's club through the first three matches of 2015 is freshman attacker Tate Schmitt, who has a team-high two goals and one assist. Senior Ben Strong, junior Andrew Brody and freshman Danny Reynolds have one goal each, while both Strong and Reynolds also have assists this season.
