Rollins College at St Leo women

When: Tonight, 7:30pm

Where: University Field, St Leo campus

For two weeks in a row, the Lions (2-0-1) have been close, but have not been able to break into the top twenty-five of the NSCAA Division II poll. Hampered by three cancelled matches and lightweight opposition in the games they have played, the St Leo women haven't gotten any recognition for their undefeated start.

Tonight, the Lions will get their chance to prove their worth against ninth ranked Rollins College (5-1-1) in a Sunshine State Conference affair. The Tars beat St Leo 1-0 last season at home on their way to claiming the conference title. St Leo will need to find a way to score goals against a Rollins defense that has six shutouts to its credit this season. The Lions attack has been led by Malloree Enoch, Pia Soesemann, and Hannah Beard, all with two goals each on the season.

The Tars leading scorer is junior forward Chelsea Brady (5 goals and 2 assists). Six other Rollins players have scored two or more goals this season, presenting a real challenge for the St Leo defense. Cristina Coca, a freshman from Riverview, has two shutouts for the Lions and an outstanding 0.37 GAA.

A win tonight would likely vault St Leo into a national ranking and give them an early lead in the Sunshine State Conference. After today's game, the Lions will play Clearwater Christian College in a non-conference match on Friday afternoon.
