Women’s Soccer Heads to LMU on Saturday

ANDERSON, S.C. - After stepping away from South Atlantic Conference play on Wednesday, Anderson University women's soccer travels to league rival Lincoln Memorial on Saturday, seeking its third win in the conference this season. Kickoff from Harrogate is set for 1 p.m.

The Trojans
With a setback to in-state rival Lander on Wednesday, Anderson enters the weekend with a 4-7-1 overall record and still clings to a 2-4-1 conference mark with seven points. The Trojans are still a point ahead of Coker for the final SAC Tournament spot in eighth place, while they trail Queens by four points for seventh place.

Despite scoring 13 goals in its first six contests this season, the Anderson attack has cooled down, scoring two goals in its last four contests. Freshman Lyssa Engle continues to lead the attack with nine goals on the season. Junior captain Faith Johannes broke a streak of six straight goals scored by Engle on Wednesday when she tallied AU's lone goal of the evening in the setback. With the goal, Johannes became the eighth different Trojan to score this season.

Defensively, sophomore goalkeeper Sadie Lancaster ranks 52nd in the nation in minutes played with over 1,095. For the season, the Celina, Texas native has made 50 saves and has recorded three shutouts.
