The Alabama State University soccer team will travel to Jackson, Miss. to face the Jackson State Tigers Friday, October 19 at 4 p.m.
 
"We're looking forward to a challenging weekend,” head coach Jodie Smith said. “We haven't been on the road in a while and that will present a challenge for us. Jackson State is the defending division champions, so we are expecting a very tough game that will have a huge impact on the seeding going into the conference tournament."
 
The Lady Hornets (5-6-2) saw action against Grambling on Sunday and defeated the Tigers 4-0 in a much needed momentum building victory before returning to conference play. ASU is coming off an eight-game home-stand, where they won half of its contests, and tied two. It's by far the best start in the history of the program.
 
Sophomore forward Alexandria Cannon has come into her own, scoring two goals in the win over Grambling. She's now in a three-way tie leading the Southwestern Athletic Conference in points with (16). Freshman forward Anastasia McCleary leads the conference in assists with (4). Sophomore goalkeeper Kylee Hathaway leads the league in save percentage (.804), shutouts (5), and shutouts per game (.38). Junior forward India Pleasant leads the conference in game winning goals with (2).
