October 26, 2024 | Soccer
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The Tennessee soccer team heads on the road for a 2 p.m. ET Sunday matchup at Kentucky.
The match is set to be televised on SEC Network with Mike Watts and Jill Loyden on the call.
Last time out, the Lady Vols (7-4-4, 2-3-3) picked up a point against No. 22 South Carolina, tying the Gamecocks 1-1.
Mac Midgley scored the equalizer in the 88th minute after successfully converting a penalty kick.
In goal, Ally Zazzara earned three saves and now has 52 on the season.
WOODS & WOODS: Graduate transfer Sammi Woods has made an impact in her sole season on Rocky Top. The Saline, Michigan, native currently leads the squad in points (10), shots (28) shots on goal (14) and is also tied with Mac Midgley in goals scored (4). Kentucky's Makala Woods leads their side in goals (8) and points (17) while also putting 16 shots on frame.
MATCHUP HISTORY: Tennessee is 17- 12-4 all-time versus the Wildcats. Last season, UT tied Kentucky 1-1 at Regal Stadium.
SCOUTING THE WILDCATS: The Wildcats (10-3-4, 2-3-4) enter the match after a narrow 0-1 loss to No. 3 Mississippi State last Thursday. A lone goal from Kennedy Husbands in the 25th minute gave the Wildcats just their third loss of the season despite a valiant defensive effort from the visitors. Despite the tough result the Wildcats move their focus onto the next and welcome the Volunteers into Lexington with an undefeated 8-0-3 home record. Makala Woods leads Kentucky with eight goals on the season while also dishing out one assist
ALLY BROWN HOLDIN' IT DOWN: Throughout the season, junior Ally Brown has been an impactful and consistent force. The Brentwood, Tennessee, native has played 1,339 total minutes, averaging 89 minutes per game. Additionally, she has posted three goal contributions (1 goal and 2 assists). She was also named to TopDrawerSoccer.com's midseason top-100 list.
UP NEXT: Tennessee will close out the regular season Wednesday as the head on the road to Florida for a 7 p.m. ET match.
