10/22/2025 12:40:00 PM | Women's Soccer
BUFFALO, NY - The University at Buffalo women's soccer team (11-3-1, 7-2 MAC) will welcome Bowling Green to UB Stadium for a showdown under the lights at 6pm. It is the team's Pink Game, sponsored by Kaleida Health, and fans are encouraged to wear pink to show support in the fight against breast cancer.
The Bulls have officially clinched a spot in the 2025 Mid-American Conference Soccer Tournament, to be held Nov. 2-7 in Columbus, Ohio. UB has advanced to the MAC tournament championship game twice in the last three seasons, with one of those trips resulting in a MAC championship title in 2022. UB's first MAC championship win came in 2014, the first season under head coach Shawn Burke.
It is the 33rd meeting between Buffalo and Bowling Green with the Falcons owning an 18-10-4 advantage. The Bulls and Falcons have played to a draw in three straight contests.
Buffalo defeated Ohio 2-1 at Chessa Field last week. Junior defender/midfielder Eva Blatz and senior midfielder Koby Commandant each recorded their second goals of the season in the victory. Despite managing just six shot attempts on the day, the Bulls were efficient as five were on target, including two goals. Junior Lexie Thompson made four saves between the pipes for UB.
The Bulls are balanced offensively, with 27 goals scored off the feet of 10 different players, led by Guerber who leads the team in goals (6) and points (17) and junior midfielder Laiken Kiser who has notched five goals. Thompson leads the Bulls between the pipes, compiling an 11-3-1 overall record. She leads the MAC and ranks in the top 30 nationally in goals against average (.61) and shutouts (7) while ranking third in the league in save percentage (.827) across 15 contests.
As a team, the Bulls lead the MAC and ranks 15th in the nation in goals against average (.60) while leading the league and ranking in the top 40 nationally in shutout percentage (.533) and goal differential (18). Offensively, the Bulls lead the league in shots per game (14.5), shots on goal (7.6) per game while ranking second in the MAC in points (78), goals (27), assists (24), scoring offense (1.80) and corner kicks per game (5.6).
Bowling Green is 8-2-6 overall and 3-1-5 in league play after falling to Ball State 1-0 on Sunday. The Falcons are led offensively by Emma Stransky who has scored seven goals. Additionally, five other players have recorded 2+ goals on the year. Peyton O'Malley leads Bowling Green between the pipes, as she leads the MAC in save percentage (.844) and ranks second in goals against average (.63) and with 54 saves in 16 starts this season.
Up next, Buffalo will travel to Toledo on Sunday, October 26 for their final road contest of the regular season. Kickoff from Paul Hotmer Field is set for 1pm.
