NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Middle Tennessee women's soccer goes on the road Thursday to face Jackson State in a neutral site game that will be played at Vanderbilt at 4:30 p.m.
The Blue Raiders then return home to host No. 1 Florida State at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, marking the first time in school history that the women's soccer team has hosted a number one ranked opponent in Murfreesboro.
MT opened up the regular season last Friday with a 1-0 win over Jacksonville State. Haley Nishimoto notched the game winning goal in the 84th minute of action when she headed in a cross from Kerri Cook for her first career score. The Raiders have now gone four-straight home openers without a loss.
Freshman Sydney Chalcraft made the start in goal against the Gamecocks, earning a shutout win while making two saves. Seven other newcomers saw their first action as Blue Raiders while five, including Chalcraft, earned their first career starts.
Jackson State enters the contest following a 2-0 loss to Southeastern Louisiana last Sunday. In the Tiger's 2015 campaign the team finished with a 11-7-2 record, good for first in the SWAC East division.
JSU returns 12 team members this season including each of the Tigers' eight multi-goal scorers. Cyndee Martin is the leading scorer amongst returning players with seven goals a season ago.
The Tigers have eight newcomers on the squad including goalkeeper Kylie Christian, who recorded 12 saves in the first contest of the year.
