BUFFALO, NY – After splitting a pair of games to open league play, the University at Buffalo women's soccer team (4-3-3, 1-1-0 MAC) is back in action with a pair of games this week. The Bulls will welcome Miami (OH) to UB Stadium for a 6pm tilt on Thursday, before traveling to Ypsilanti for a contest against the Eastern Michigan Eagles on Sunday afternoon.
Thursday will be Alzheimer's Awareness Night at UB Stadium with the players wearing purple warm up shirts. It is a cause that hits close to home for head coach Shawn Burke as he lost his father to the disease. Every year the team does their part to help raise money and #ENDALZ.
Thursday's game will be the 29th meeting between Buffalo and Miami (OH) with the RedHawks holding a 16-9-3 series advantage. UB defeated Miami (OH) 1-0 in the MAC Tournament semifinals a season ago.
On Sunday it will also be the 29th meeting between Buffalo and Eastern Michigan with the Eagles holding a narrow 11-10-7 series edge. The Bulls have won four of the last five meetings with the Eagles, most recently a 3-0 win at UB Stadium a year ago.
The Bulls opened Mid-American Conference play with a 2-0 win at Akron with Katie Krohn scoring a pair of first half goals before UB fell to Ohio in a heartbreaker on Sunday afternoon.
Krohn leads the Bulls with six goals and two assists over the opening nine games of play. She is tied for first in the MAC in total goals (6), goals per game (0.67), points (14) and points per game (1.56) while also ranking in the top five in total shots (27) and shots per game (3.00). Fifth year Leah Wengender has three goals while Arianna Zumpano has also recorded a goal. Freshman Lexie Thompson has led the Bulls between the pipes, compiling a 3-1-2 overall record. She ranks second in the league with a .83 goals against average, fifth in save percentage (.762) and ranks in the top 10 in total saves (16).
Miami (OH) enters Thursday's match with a 3-6-1 overall record after dropping a pair of contests at Ball State and against Central Michigan to open MAC play. The RedHawks are led offensively by junior forward Taylor Hamlett who has recorded two goals and an assist, while three other players have recorded one goal each on the year. Miami (OH) is led between the pipes by freshman Doninique Popa who has made 28 saves while recording a .718 save percentage and a 1,47 goals against average in eight starts.
Eastern Michigan enters league play with a 1-4-5 overall record after picking up their first win of the season against Central Michigan before playing to a 1-1 draw with Ball State on Sunday. Freshman forward/midfielder Kate Robinson and junior forward Meagan Lukowski lead the Eagles offensively with three goals each while Olivia Sipsock has added two goals and an assist on the season. In net, Eastern Michigan is led by redshirt freshman Ella Holland who has made 33 saves and owns a 0.688 save percentage and a 1.81 goals against average in eight starts.
