BOSTON - Riding a six-game winning streak, the Boston University women's soccer team (9-5-0, 4-0-0 AE) will travel north to Vermont (2-10-0, 1-2-0 AE) to take on the Catamounts on Sunday (Oct. 10) at 1 p.m.
BU, which has now won 26 of its last 27 matches against America East foes dating back to 2007, holds the 10-2-2 advantage in the all-time series record with the Catamounts and are 4-0-1 in the last five meetings.
BU, which now maintains a stronghold on first place in the league standings following its 3-0 win over Hartford on Thursday, leads the league in points (73), goals (27), assists (19), goals-against average (0.71) and shutouts (8). On an individual level, graduate student Lisa Kevorkian leads the America East in points (18) and goals (8) and is tied with junior Jessica Luscinski for game-winning goals (3).
The Terriers have boasted a six-game shutout streak and have held opponents scoreless for 558:02 minutes, which spans seven games and dates back to a 3-0 loss to No. 12 Virginia.
The goalkeeping duo of Alice Binns (1st, 0.47) and Kelly King (2nd, 0.94) sits atop the conference in goals-against average, while Binns boasts the league's best save percentage (.900).
Head coach Nancy Feldman and the women's soccer program are now two wins away from their 200th victory. Feldman, a 22-year coaching veteran, currently ranks 13th all-time with 290 career victories and 12th among Division I coaches.
The Terriers continue with their road stretch this week with Dartmouth (Oct. 13) and Binghamton (Oct. 17).
