UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. - After being on the road for A-10 action last weekend, the Richmond women's soccer team returns home to host the Charlotte 49ers on Saturday at 7:00 p.m. at First Market Stadium.
The Spiders (1-10-2 overall, 1-3-0 in the A-10) just dropped two A-10 contests over the weekend, falling short 2-1 in an overtime battle with George Washington before dropping 3-0 at La Salle. Kristen Stalter, Julia Bizer and Nora Mann lead the Spiders in scoring with two goals apiece on the season.
The 49ers (8-4-2 overall, 3-1-0 in the A-10) are coming off a split weekend when they fell 2-1 at La Salle and won an overtime victory, 3-2, with George Washington. Led by Nikki Labuda with seven goals and two assists, the 49ers have won five of their last six games.
The 49ers hold a 1-0 advantage in the Richmond-Charlotte series after last year's 2-1 double-overtime victory over the Spiders.
Following Saturday night's competition, the Spiders will resume league play next weekend as they head to New York to face St. Bonaventure and Fordham.
