The Ragin’ Cajuns look to close the season on the road with a victory
HUNTINGTON, W.V. - The Louisiana soccer team wraps up the 2024 season at Marshall on Thursday at 6 p.m.
Louisiana finished the home portion of their schedule last time out, falling 1-0 to Georgia State. Makenna Garcia had her first extended look in the net, making six saves in the second half. Before the game, the team honored their five seniors Tatum Beck, Lauren Bennett, Lucy Ortiz, Mariella Stephens, and Hailly Waterhouse. Those five combined for 339 games and over 23,000 minutes as a Cajun.
Despite missing the Sun Belt Conference championships, it's been a historic season for Louisiana. At 4-0-3 the Cajuns had their longest unbeaten streak to start a season and it matched the longest unbeaten streak overall in program history. Natalie Mayes has had a terrific year in goal, posting a league-leading seven shutouts to set another single-season program record.
The team finished with a 5-3-3 record at home. The five wins were the team's most home wins since 2020 and marked back-to-back winning seasons at home. With eight draws, the most in school history, the team has been battle-tested all season. Seven of the team's nine Sun Belt Conference matches either resulted in a tie or were decided by one goal.
Match 20 | Louisiana vs. Marshall | October 31 | 6 PM | Huntington, W.V.
Series History: Louisiana leads 1-0
