Aboubacar Traore scored 15 points in just 16 minutes as Louisville earned a rare victory over host Virginia on Saturday, winning 70-50 in Charlottesville, Va. Traore returned last weekend after missing 10 games due to a broken arm. He entered Saturday after scoring just five points in his first four games this season for the Cardinals (10-5, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference). Coming off the bench, Traore scored nine points in eight minutes during the first half. That included a 3-pointer with 48 seconds left in the half to give Louisville a 32-25 lead. Virginia (8-6, 1-2) had a 7-0 run early in the second half, cutting the Cardinals' lead to 36-34 with 16:46 remaining after a Jacob Cofie layup.
