The Golden Eagles will travel to Jackson, Miss. for a road contest against the Tigers on Thursday
HATTIESBURG, Miss. – The Southern Miss Golden Eagles (5-1) will hit the road again on Thursday and travel to Jackson, Miss. for an in-state battle against SWAC opponent Jackson State University (0-6). The match is scheduled to take place at the JSU Soccer Field on the campus of Jackson State University beginning at 4:00 p.m. (CT).
The Last Time Out
The Golden Eagles squared off against Nicholls State on Sunday in Thibodaux, La. and shutout the Colonels by a final score of 2-0. With their win on Sunday, the Golden Eagles have now won their last five contests, and currently own the longest active winning streak in C-USA.
Midfielders Stephanie Garcia and Hannah Abrams netted the two goals for the Golden Eagles in Sunday's match. Garcia's goal came at the 32:08 mark in the first period after she chipped the ball around the keeper and then scored from approximately 15 feet. Abrams took advantage of a deflected ball and scored the Golden Eagles' second goal of the game at the 69:52 mark in the second period of play. Redshirt freshman goalkeeper Sarah Preston earned the first start of her Southern Miss career and recorded her first shutout.
Breaking Down the All-Time Record
Southern Miss will look to continue their road success, and extend their winning streak to six games as they wrap up their five-game road stint at Jackson State on Thursday. Jackson State will be seeking their first victory of the 2018 season when they host the Golden Eagles. The Tigers are led by third year head coach Stephen Peck. Southern Miss leads the all-times series 7-0-1. The Golden Eagles are 6-0-0 when facing the Tigers in Hattiesburg, 0-0-1 in road contests and 1-0-0 when playing at a neutral site.
The Last Meeting on the Pitch
The last time that the Golden Eagles made the trip to Jackson was in 2015. The Golden Eagles and the Tigers tied the contest 1-1 in double overtime. The last meeting between the two teams occurred on September 14, 2017 at the USM Track & Field and Soccer Complex. Southern Miss won the contest 10-0. The 10 goals scored by the Golden Eagles tied the all-time high for the number of goals scored in a single match in the history of the program.
