CUTHBERT, Ga. – With just three matches remaining in the regular season, the Andrew College Women's Soccer team returns home Thursday, Oct. 22, to face Brewton-Parker Christian University in a Southern States Athletic Conference (SSAC) matchup at Hord Complex Field.

As the season winds down, the Fighting Tigers will look to capitalize on their home-field advantage and secure their first victory of the season and the first for the Women's Soccer program under the leadership of Head Coach Carnell Learmond.

With two of their final three matches taking place at home, the Lady Tigers will look to close out their inaugural NAIA season on a positive note.

Previously on the Pitch

In their last match, the Fighting Tigers traveled to Montgomery, Ala., to face Faulkner University in another SSAC matchup. Unfortunately, Andrew was unable to secure its first conference victory in program history, falling 7-1 to the Eagles during their Homecoming celebration.

Despite the loss, the Fighting Tigers found a much-needed offensive spark in the 79th minute as Natalya Riden found the back of the net to give Andrew its first goal since the season opener.

Although the Lady Tigers were unable to overcome the deficit, finding the back of the net against a tough Faulkner squad provided some much-needed momentum as Andrew prepares for the final stretch of its schedule.

The Andrew College Women's Soccer team will close out its home schedule Saturday, Oct. 24, against Thomas University at 1 p.m. before traveling to Hattiesburg, Miss., for its regular-season finale against William Carey University.
The matchup against William Carey will serve as a makeup contest after the original meeting earlier this month was postponed due to inclement weather associated with Tropical Storm Isaias.

The Opponent: The Barons
The Fighting Tigers will face Brewton-Parker Christian University for the first time in program history.
The Barons enter Thursday's matchup with a 4-11-1 overall record and are currently riding a two-match winning streak following a dominant 6-0 victory over Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College during their Senior Day celebration.

The two-match winning streak is Brewton-Parker's longest of the season, and the Barons will look to extend it Thursday against Andrew.

Thursday's match is set for 1 p.m. at Hord Complex Field on the campus of Andrew College in Cuthbert, Ga.
