KENNESAW, Ga. – The Kennesaw State women's lacrosse team is on the road for the first time since the season opener as it faces the Wofford Terriers on Saturday afternoon. The game starts at 1 p.m. in Spartanburg, S.C., and will be streamed live on ESPN+.
 
A FEW NOTES
 
» This is the third meeting between the Owls and Terriers in program history. The Owls are undefeated all-time against the Terriers with a record of 3-0. 
 
» Siena Gore is the driving force behind the Owls' scoring production. The midfielder was fourth in the nation in 2021 in goals per game and eighth in total goals, while also ranking first in free position goals per game at 2.36. This season, she's currently eighth in the NCAA in total goals (19), 19th in goals per game (3.8), and 13th in draw controls per game (7.2).
 
» Graduate transfer McKenzie Jackson has accumulated seven goals and 13
draw controls so far this season. The attacker was a two-time First-Team All-Sunshine State Conference selection for Embry-Riddle.
 
» One advantage for Kennesaw State heading into the schedule, the Owls return nine of 11 starters from last year's squad, and a total of 20 overall players. Sixth-year head coach Laura Maness is hopeful that experience will be an advantage for KSU this season.
 
» Attacker Elisabeth Ralph leads scoring for the Terriers with six goals and seven draw controls this season. Close behind her are midfielders Emma Gentile and Carley Irvin with five goals each. Gentile has also notched four assists this season. Aislinn Washburn has started every game in the net for the Terriers and has  21 saves with a save percentage of .382.
 
» Kennesaw State claimed its first-ever victory over a Power Five school on Feb. 20 when it held off the Oregon Ducks for 14-13 victory. That was also the first-ever victory for KSU against the Pac-12 Conference, after dropping a pair of games to Arizona State.
 
» The Owls swept the ASUN Player of the Week awards in week two of competition. Siena Gore brought home Offensive Player of the Week after accumulating five goals, two assists and five draw controls. Errin Crowe earned the first Defensive Player of the Week of her career with a career high eight saves and save percentage of .533.
 
» The Owls placed two on the preseason All-ASUN team. Both were repeat selections, beginning with to no one's surprise, star senior Siena Gore as a midfielder. She was joined by senior defender Payton Gregory.
 
NEXT TIME OUT
The Owls return home to Kennesaw for a Tuesday, March 8 contest at 12 pm against Radford at Fifth Third Bank Stadium.
