The Matchup ...
Davidson (2-9, 0-4 A-10), entering its 30th year of women's soccer, will welcome the Dayton Flyers (5-5-2, 1-2-1 A-10) to Alumni Stadium this coming Sunday, Oct. 7 for a 2 p.m. contest.

The game vs. Dayton will be the sixth meeting all-time between both schools. The Wildcats trail 0-5 in the series, which dates back to 2002. The last meeting occurred a year ago at Dayton where the 'Cats dropped a 2-0 decision.
A-10 Preseason ...
The Atlantic 10 preseason poll came out earlier this week and the Saint Louis Billikens were chosen as the Atlantic 10 Conference preseason favorite in a vote conducted by the league's 14 head coaches. The league's head coaches also voted for an 11-member preseason all-conference team.
The Billikens (15-3-2, 7-2-1 A-10 last year) earned 192 votes and ten first-place tallies to take the top spot in the rankings. La Salle ranked second in the predicted order of finish with 184 points and four first-place votes, followed by Duquesne and George Mason, who each tallied 145 votes to round out the top four spots. Davidson received 36 votes and was tied with St. Bonaventure for 12th place.
Previous Game For the Wildcats, Sept. 30 ...
George Mason's Emily Littell scored a pair of goals and Davidson fell on the road last Sunday afternoon 3-0 to the Patriots. The score was just 1-0 at the half after Littell scored at the 19:21 mark off a cross from Nia Elbeck. It remained that until GMU scored in the 74th minute and then added one more goal, another one by Littell, with 88:04 on the clock. Davidson got off seven shots for the game, four of them in the first half, but put just two shots overall on goal.
