Wildcats Host Western Carolina Thursday Night
9/1/2021 3:52:00 PM | Women's Soccer
The Davidson women's soccer team returns to action for two games this week, beginning with Thursday night's home match against Western Carolina at Alumni Stadium at 7 p.m.
Â
It's the Wildcats' fourth home game in five to start the season, and they enter the meeting of former Southern Conference foes with a 2-2 mark.
Â
"We're looking to continue to grow in the early season with a young team, and we're excited for these opportunities that lie ahead," said Davidson coach Adam Denton.
Â
The Wildcats lead the all-time series 11-6-1 over the Catamounts, including a 1-0 win in Cullowhee on Feb. 21 when Remi White, now a junior, scored in the 10th minute.
Â
Western is also 2-2, with wins over Gardner-Webb and UNC Asheville. Kirsten Hahn leads the Catamounts with two goals.
Â
Thursday's contest is Davidson's last home game until Sept. 23, when Atlantic 10 foe Saint Joseph's visits.
Â
'Cats press the issue
Davidson has been the aggressor offensively this season, out-shooting its opponents 48-23 and 24-12 in shots-on-goal. Additionally, the Wildcats have an 18-7 advantage in corners.
Â
Five Wildcats have scored, led by Aleia Gisolfi-McCready, who has two goals. Sophia Caruso leads with six SOGs, while Emma Nguyen and Riley Patton have scored game-winners.Â
Â
Up Next
Davidson will play six of its next seven contests on the road, including four straight, beginning with a trip to Presbyterian Sunday.
Â
Davidson leads the series 3-1, but the Wildcats and Blue Hose have not met since 2010.
Â
"We haven't had the opportunity to play PC recently, so we're looking forward to it," said Denton.
Â
PC is 1-3, with a win over Alabama State, as it enters a Friday contest at The Citadel.
