Who's Hot: Elizabeth Gowan continues to be the Lady Ospreys' scoring threat, after scoring her fifth goal of the season Oct. 20 against Campbell. The goal was Gowan's second game-winning goal of the season.
The freshmen got into the attack on Oct. 18 against Gardner-Webb as Alejandra Castanos scored her first goal of the season, while Tiffany Wiggen recorded her second of the year. Wiggen ended the game with three shots, two of which were on goal, after creating two good chances on goal that were stopped by the Gardner-Webb goalkeeper.
Notables: The Lady Ospreys concluded their road schedule last weekend, finishing a perfect 5-0-0 in the Atlantic Sun Conference away from Hodges Stadium.
Series Record:
UNF vs. Lipscomb: 2-0
UNF vs. Belmont: 1-0-1
Last Meeting:
UNF vs. Lipscomb: Lady Ospreys won 1-0 on Oct. 12, 2006.
UNF vs. Belmont: Teams battled to a 1-1 tie after two overtime periods.
Quotable:
Assistant Coach Morgan Church on ending the season at home: "We are very excited to have a five game winning streak on the road, which is remarkable. Most teams play better at home than on the road, but we have played very well on the road."
Church on Lipscomb: "We are trying to put together a 90 minute game. We want the team to be focused from the start and make a statement on our home field."
Church on Belmont: "It doesn't matter what team we play, we just want to put in our best effort every time. We aren't going to take them lightly because we know that every team in this conference can beat everyone. However, we are going to focus on playing UNF soccer and getting a win."
