The Kennesaw State women's soccer team returns to Fifth Third Bank Stadium for its first home match of the season, welcoming the Blazers for a 1 p.m. kickoff time on Sunday.
It's been nearly 10 years since the two sides have met and UAB will have something to prove, as the Owls have taken all three previous games.
Head Coach Benji Walton's side is coming off a 1-0 loss to Charlotte, deprived of a chance to level the game in the closing minutes due to weather on Thursday evening.
A 2021 spring-season member of the ASUN All-Freshman team, Tianna Rivera's speed and close control of the ball helped her dictate much of the pace of the Owls' forward line.
English winger Breon Grant was an impressive figure off the bench, using tidy touches and passes to get her team into dangerous areas.
Debuting Thursday after her transfer from Coastal Carolina, Caeden Price was a calming presence in Walton's defense. The native Georgian will look to become a crucial piece in the KSU back four.
