NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Yale women's soccer program will take its three-match winning streak on the road when it plays Kansas State on Friday night at Buser Family Park. Kickoff for the match is at 8 p.m. EDT. Yale then heads to the University of Kansas on Sunday to meet the Jayhawks. Kickoff is slated for 2 p.m. EDT.

The Bulldogs (3-0-1) opened their 2022 season with four-straight home games at Reese Stadium and won the last three over Quinnipiac, Boston University and Fordham to gain momentum before their first road trip.

In the past 180 minutes of play – which spans two full matches - the Yale defense has not surrendered a goal. The Elis posted 1-0 shutout victories over both Boston University and Fordham behind the strong play of sophomore goalkeeper Maya Bellomo, who tallied 10 saves across the two contests.

Sophomore Ellie Rappole is the team's leading scorer with five points (two goals, one assist) and is one of five players with multiple points through the team's first four matches. The Bulldogs are outscoring opponents this season, 6-1.

SCOUTING KANSAS STATE
Kansas State (2-3-1) is coming off a tight 2-1 loss to Purdue last Sunday and has dropped two of its last three matches heading into Friday. Senior Kyler Goins is the team's leading scorer with three goals (six points) this season, scoring in three of the past four matches. The Wildcats are 0-4-3 in their last seven home contests dating back to the 2021 season, in which they went 6-10-2 overall (1-6-2 Big 12).

SCOUTING KANSAS
The Jayhawks (4-2) host Kansas City on Thursday night. Kansas lost to Missouri 2-1 on Sunday which snapped a four-game winning streak.
