8/29/2018 9:20:00 AM | Soccer
TROY, Alabama – The Troy soccer team looks to snap its three-game skid on Thursday as it takes on Ole Miss in a neutral site game at The Cage in Mobile at 4 p.m.
The Trojans (1-3-0) dropped a pair of home matches over the weekend with Claire Taylor producing the squad's lone goal. Troy outshot its opponents 22-15 over the weekend and manufactured 13 corners, but were unlucky in finishing.
Â
Ole Miss (3-1-0) split its two weekend matches and traveled a fair piece to do so. The Rebels fell to Minnesota, 2-1, in overtime in Minneapolis on Friday before shutting out Murray State, 3-0, back in Oxford on Sunday. Senior CeCe Kizer has been a force for Ole Miss early on posting five goals and two assists in four games this season, while the Rebels' defense has allowed just two goals.
