The Park-Lindenwood women's soccer rivalry
has brewed for fourteen years, through nineteen head-to-head
match-ups. Historically, Lindenwood owns the slight edge, going
11-7-0 in matches with Park. The Lions have outscored Park,
27-22. Park's last win against Lindenwood was won 1-0 at a neutral
site during the 1996 season. Last year and again this season, Park
conceded 1-0 decisions to Lindenwood during the regular season. In
their match-up on October 17, Lindenwood's Lena Ingasrudoya netted the
only goal of the match with under two minutes remaining. Lindenwood hosts
Friday's regional championship, but the Lions also host the NAIA National
Championship Tournament this season which assures them an opportunity to
play for the national title this year. Park must win Friday to
advance to the national tournament.
The women's basketball game on Saturday,
November 10, against York College at 1:00 p.m. features a special halftime
shootout event organized by Professor Michael Fitzmorris' class. Ten
winners will have an opportunity to shoot half-court shots for prizes
immediately following the first half of action.
