Match 14 - Miami | ESPN3 | Live Stats
RALEIGH – Continuing its three-match road trip, the NC State women's soccer team returns to action on Sunday afternoon when it takes on Miami. Kickoff from Cobb Stadium in Coral Gables, Fla., is set for 1 p.m. and the match will be broadcast live on ESPN3.
LAST MATCH
Freshman goalkeeper Sydney Wootten tied a career high with seven saves as the Pack dropped a 4-0 decision at the reigning national champion No. 2 Florida State Seminoles Thursday evening.
A WIN ON SUNDAY WOULD...
-Be the 326th win in program history
-Be the Pack's first ACC win of the season
SERIES HISTORY
-Sunday's match marks the 12th all-time meeting between NC State and Miami.
-The Hurricanes hold a 6-3-2 lead in the series.
-Last meeting: NC State lost 3-1 at home against Miami on Oct. 23, 2014.
-NC State last defeated Miami on Sept. 21, 2006, winning in Raleigh by a final count of 1-0.
SCOUTING THE HURRICANES
-Miami enters Sunday's match the owner of a 4-8-0 record which includes a 1-4-0 mark in ACC play.
-ACC win: No. 14 Notre Dame (1-0, 2OT).
-ACC losses: at Wake Forest (3-0), at Louisville (1-0), No. 7 Clemson (2-1, 2OT), and Duke (1-0).
-The Hurricanes are led in scoring by Grace Lachowecki's five goals.
-Miami has been outscored by its opponents 20-16 this season.
PENALTY SAVED!
Wootten faced the first penalty of her collegiate career on Thursday evening and passed the test in the 41st minute by stopping Carson Pickett's spot kick. On the other side of the field, the Wolfpack has not been awarded a penalty since an October 13 (2013) home contest against Clemson: a span of 36 matches.
ANOTHER LINE OF DEFENSE
NC State has recorded two team defensive saves during the 2015 season. Sophomore Mackenzie Graybill and junior Alyson Brown have each headed shot attempts off the goal line this season.
THE REGULARS
Only four Wolves have started all 13 matches of the 2015 season. Two of them--Hannah Keogh and Taylor Porter--are true freshmen.
POSTPONED DUE TO WEATHER
NC State's scheduled October 2 home match against No. 3 Virginia was postponed due to multiple days of heavy rain in the Raleigh area. The contest has been rescheduled and will be played on October 28 at Dail Soccer Field.
