Pitt Men's Soccer Signs Drexel Transfer Midfielder
PITTSBURGH -- The Pitt Panthers continue to look add to their men's soccer roster ahead of the 2024 season, as they found a new midfielder in the transfer portal.

Illuminato spent one season at Drexel, where he started all 16 games, scoring five goals and creating eight assists. He was first on the team with his assists and scored the second most goals.
He is from Napoli, Italy and played in the youth setup for Napoli when he was younger, as well as other Italian clubs. He will have one year left of eligibility for the Panthers.
Illuminato is one of four transfers to join Pitt this offseason, along with fellow midfielders in senior Casper Grening from Kentucky and sophomore Logan Oliver from Indiana, plus Dayton defender in Casper Svendby.
Pitt also added Norwin star Owen Christopher to their roster as well, as a member of their Class of 2024.
