CUTHBERT, Ga. – After suffering their second 10-0 loss in their last three matches, the Fighting Tigers will face another tall task as they take the pitch against No. 7 Faulkner University.
This will mark Andrew's fifth consecutive conference matchup and its first meeting against Faulkner in program history.

In their last match against the University of Mobile on Thursday, Oct. 15, the Fighting Tigers fell, 10-0. It marked their second 10-goal loss in the last three matches, with the previous defeat coming against No. 4 Life University on Oct. 3. The loss also marked Andrew's seventh shutout defeat of the season.
After getting their offense going Thursday, Oct. 8, against Xavier University of Louisiana, thanks to two goals from freshman standout
