SAN MARCOS, Texas – After a grueling regular season, the top eight teams meet for the Sun Belt Conference Soccer Championship at the Bobcat Soccer Complex. The game will be streamed free online at SunBeltSports.org.
Troy (8-9-1) enters as the No. 5 seed and will take on host No. 4 Texas State (7-8-2) at 7p.m. (CT) on Wednesday. The Bobcats took the regular season match between the teams in a 2-1 decision at the Troy Soccer Complex in late September.
The Trojans are looking to make a run in the tournament after finishing the regular season on a high note winning two straight league games before ending the year with a draw at Louisiana-Lafayette.
Freshman Necee Jennings leads Troy into the tournament with seven goals. Jennings also has four game-winners in 18 games for the Trojans. Cecilia Thorngren has scored four goals while collecting three assists. The Trojans will also rely on goalkeeper Madison Winter, who despite playing just nine games posted five clean sheets.
