LA Tech Plays Final Fall Match on Saturday

Kickoff is set for 3 p.m.

RUSTON – The Louisiana Tech Soccer team makes its third and final fall appearance on the pitch Saturday afternoon when they play at Texas A&M-Commerce at 3 p.m. at Lion Soccer Field.
 
After losing the season opener, LA Tech (1-1) rebounded with a 2-1 overtime victory at Abilene Christian three weeks ago. 
 
The Lady Techsters fell behind early in the second half, but senior Klesha Darroux equalized on a header goal just a few minutes later.  Then just two minutes deep into the first overtime period, freshman Tomoyo Kuroyanagi netted the golden goal off a free kick.
 
Kuroyanagi became the fifth freshman in program history to record a game-winning goal in OT.  The team improved to 10-1-11 in their last 22 overtime matches (dating back to 2016).
 
Sophomore Maggie Boston made her first career appearance in net and was stellar, recording six saves in the victory. 
 
Saturday will be the first match played for Texas A&M-Commerce.  The Lions, who participate in the Lone Star Conference, will play the majority of their season in the spring.
 
The Lady Techsters and Lions will be meeting for the very first time.  
 
There will be no live stream for the match, but a link to live stats is available at LATechSports.com.  Twitter users can follow @LATechSOC for live in-game updates.
