Ragin' Cajuns, Aggies meet for first time on soccer pitch
COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Coming off its first victory of the Spring season, the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Women's Soccer team heads west to the Lone Star State to face No. 12th-ranked Texas A&M on Saturday at Ellis Field.
Â
Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. The contest will be available on SEC Network Plus. Live stats will be available at 12thMan.com.
Â
Louisiana (10-7-1) reached the 10-win mark for the second time in school history after posting a 3-0 victory over in-state foe Nicholls on Thursday. Lizzie Mayfield, Hailey Daigle and Karleen Bedre each scored goals for Louisiana while Lauryn Starwood stopped a pair of shots in earning her eighth victory of the season.
Â
Mayfield (6 goals, 6 assists) and Bedre (3 goals, 4 assists) are Louisiana's top scorers with Hailey Hoffmann (3 goals), Gwen Mummert (2 goals, 2 assists) and Alyssa Abbott (2 goals, 1 assist) all entering the scoring column. Â
Â
The meeting against A&M (8-3-0, 7-1-0 SEC) will be the first between the schools on the pitch and Louisiana's third against an SEC opponent during the spring. The Ragin' Cajuns opened its five-match Spring schedule against Alabama on Feb. 26 before playing at Mississippi State on Feb. 28.
Â
Texas A&M opened its spring on Monday with a 3-2 loss in overtime at Rice. The Aggies scored two goals in a span of 13 seconds to take an early 2-0 lead before Rice rallied twice to tie the match before scoring the golden goal with 17 seconds left in the first overtime period.
Â
The Aggies, who played without SEC Freshman of the Year Barbara Olivieri along with key offensive pieces in Kate Colvin and Ali Russell, are making a push towards their 26th consecutive NCAA Division I Championship appearance and are one of only four teams to play in every national tournament since 1995.
