The Ladies (0-3-1) and YellowJackets (0-5-1) will meet for the 13th time on Saturday as LeTourneau holds a 7-5 edge in the all-time series. The YellowJackets blanked the Ladies 2-0 last season in Longview, Texas.
Centenary fell 1-0 to the Millsaps College Majors in a non-conference contest on Wednesday evening in Jackson, Miss. while LeTourneau, 0-2-1 away from home this season, lost 2-1 to Hendrix College on its home field on Thursday.
The Ladies' match at Millsaps was scoreless until the Majors' Alex Bremond scored in the 59th minute, an unassisted goal and her fifth of the season, to make it 1-0. Centenary sophomore GK/MF Zoe Keller (Waggaman, La.) went the distance for the Ladies in goal and recorded eight saves in her 90 minutes. Keller made her first-career start on Sunday against Huntingdon as she also made eight saves in that match – a 3-3 tie against the Hawks.
Senior MF Aubrey Burkhardt (Bossier City, La.), sophomore F/MF Lowrey Lain (Haughton, La.), and senior MF/D Desiree Rodriguez (Forney, Texas) scored the Ladies' three goals against Huntingdon and junior D/MF Kylie Zeller (Denham Springs, La.), freshman MF Sydney Hamm (Sterlington, La.), and senior D/MF Kaitlyn Bordelon (Shreveport, La.) all tallied assists.
A Glance at LeTourneau:
The YellowJackets have scored four goals this season and allowed 14. Four players have scored one goal each and two players have tallied one assist each.
LeTourneau, who finished 6-7-5 last season, is coached by Steve Lord and assisted by Tatum Fenton and Jacen Lord.
The YellowJackets are members of the American Southwest Conference (ASC) but will soon be conference members with the Ladies as LeTourneau will join the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference effective the 2025-26 academic year.
Saturday's match is the first of two at home for the Ladies this weekend as they will face Wiley University on Sunday at 4 p.m.
