The Lady Topper soccer team will be looking to secure its first conference win Thursday night, Sept. 28, when it welcomes Rice to Bowling Green in WKU's home conference opener.
WKU (3-5-1, 0-1-1 C-USA) is coming off a two-game road stretch, with both matches going to double overtime. The Lady Toppers will look to ride their defensive effort from last Thursday’s scoreless draw with Southern Mississippi to a victory.
Senior Allison Leone and sophomore Christina Bragado were named Conference USA Goalkeeper and Defensive Player of the week, respectively. Leone secured the honor for the third time in her career, the most of any goalkeeper in program history, and tied with Amanda Buechel for most among all WKU players.
