OXFORD, Miss. - The Ole Miss soccer team (4-2-0) will travel up the road to Memphis on Tuesday for a rare early-week match against the Memphis Tigers (4-1-0) at 7:30 p.m.
After starting the season with four straight wins, the Rebels fell to both Saint Louis and No. 11 Florida State in their last two matches.
On Sunday, Ole Miss played close with the very talented Seminole squad to get edged 1-0. Florida State's roster includes seven national team members representing six different countries.
Ole Miss is led by sophomore midfielder Chrissy Strini, who has a team-high seven points (2 G, 3 A). Freshmen Jennifer Hance and Amanda Verkin, who have both earned SEC Freshman of the Week honors in the young season, are tied with Strini for the goals scored lead with two.
Following the Tuesday match, the Rebels will return to Oxford for a Friday night contest against Charlotte at 7 p.m.
