ABILENE CHRISTIAN COLLECTS A PAIR OF WINS
Abilene Christian is off to a hot start as the Wildcats are 3-1-0 to begin the season, surrendering only one goal in the first four games. Last week, the Wildcats claimed a pair of 1-0 victories against Tulsa and Houston Christian. Abby Smith and Shakira Kafero Roberts recorded the game-winners for ACU as Kafero Roberts scored with just four minutes remaining in the match against HCU to lift the Wildcats to their second consecutive win. McCarly Holloman was named this week’s WAC Defensive Player of the Week after playing the entirety of both games last week and helping ACU to two clean sheets.

Tarleton State is coming off an undefeated week after defeating Texas Southern 4-0 and drawing with Northwestern State 0-0 in a weather-shortened match.
