LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Little Rock travels to in-state rival Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Sunday at noon. The Trojans will try to extend their 12-game winning streak against the Golden Lions.
The game will be streamed as well as have live updates on social media.
Little Rock and UAPB have met every year since 2009, with the Trojans winning 14 of 15 games. The Golden Lions’ only victory came in 2010.
The Trojans are averaging 4.18 goals per game, with their largest margin of victory a 9-0 win in the first meeting in 2009. Little Rock’s defense has been dominant, posting six straight shutouts. The Trojans have not allowed a goal since 2016 and have given up just five goals in the series.
“I think every game presents its own set of challenges but going into Sunday we have a lot to focus on on both sides of the ball. I’m hoping we can create lots of chances and be a bit more opportunistic and clinical in the final third. It will be a good test for us defensively as well to work out some things from our last match,” said Head Coach Kelly Farrell.
Little Rock will try to rebound after a loss at East Texas A&M. Maggie Turner, Amaya Arias and freshmen Emily Nahon and Mary Ratcliff were standouts in that game.
