Preview
The Alabama women's soccer team is on a historic run, having not lost a game since August 21st and riding a six-match winning streak. The Crimson Tide are ranked No. 5 in the nation, and the only SEC team with double-digit wins with a 10-1-1 record.
A lot of the success can be attributed to the play of Riley Mattingly Parker, who is second in the SEC with nine goals and 19 total points, and Felicia Knox who leads the conference with 11 assists.
The defense has also been strong, as the Tide have pitched seven shutouts, led by McKinley Crone's 31 saves, tied for 5th in the SEC, and a stout defense that halts opposing offenses.
The Tide originally were supposed to play Georgia on Friday, but concerns about Hurricane Ian forced the game to be moved up. The Bulldogs come in with a 8-3-0 record overall, and 2-1-0 during conference play.
