CUTHBERT, Ga. – On Thursday, Sept. 3, the Andrew College Women's Soccer team will take the pitch for its first game of the season against Talladega College out of Alabama. The match marks the Lady Tigers' first home game of the season and their first official contest as members of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and the Southern States Athletic Conference (SSAC).
The Fighting Tigers enter Thursday's matchup riding high after a 3-0 exhibition win over Agnes Scott the previous week. Andrew will look to attack early and carry that momentum into its regular-season opener.
