The Kennesaw State women's soccer team returns home to Fifth Third Bank Stadium to take on divisional adversaries in Jacksonville.
The Owls are coming off another exciting game against FGCU, which they won 2-1 with a golden goal in the second period of overtime.
KSU currently sits in a tie for the top of the ASUN Conference's East Division, level on points with the Liberty Flames.
Red-Hot Higgs
Redshirt junior
Kendall Higgs has been an efficient forward for the Owls in conference play, with the Floridian scoring a goal in each of KSU's last three wins.
It began with a sliding poke-in against North Alabama and continued with a goal of the year candidate against Central Arkansas.
Higgs continued her run of scoring form against FGCU, latching on to a defensive mistake from the Eagles for the easy equalizer in the 89th minute.
Heavenly Ebony
Ebony Clarke's impeccable timing has come in clutch multiple times this season.
The sophomore bagged her first game-winning goal in the opening second of overtime against Central Arkansas, getting on the end of a
Kathryn Schreck cross with a header for her second goal of the game.
It felt like déjà vu Thursday against FGCU, as Schreck played a corner kick out to her far post.
Clarke was once again at the right place at the right time to head in another overtime winner against conference competition.
Next Match
The Owls continue their campaign with their penultimate home game of the season, facing off against Stetson on Thursday, Oct. 14 at 7 p.m.
