10.16.19 | Women's Soccer
PHILADELPHIA—Temple women's soccer (4-8-3, 2-4 AAC) will kick off its two-game road trip to Florida on Thursday, Oct. 17 at No. 21 UCF. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. at the UCF Soccer and Track Complex.
Owl About Us
> The Cherry and White are led by head coach Seamus O'Connor, who is in his seventh season at the helm of the program.
> Temple is captained by junior Julia Dolan and seniors Morgan Basileo, Emily Keitel and Molly Tobin.
> Sophomore Hailey Gutowski's first collegiate brace against Houston earned her the top spot on Temple's offensive production lists. She now has 10 points (4g, 2a) on the season. Fellow sophomore Gabriela Johnson is another formidable component of the Owls attack, as she has tallied nine points (3g, 3a).
> Basileo has notched 101 saves through 15 games. This mark is good for fourth in the nation and first in the American. She has notched double-digit saves twice this season (8/22 at Wake Forest, 9/12 at Maryland). The senior captain owns a 1.34 goal against average, a 0.828 save percentage and has earned three shutouts.
> Gutowski earned her second AAC Weekly Honor Roll nod of the season on Oct. 14 for her explosive offensive performance against Houston.
Last Time Out
> Temple women's soccer picked up a critical conference win on Sunday afternoon, downing Houston (3-11, 0-4 AAC), 2-0. The victory was backed by a second-half brace by Gutowski with assists from Johnson and senior Morgan Morocco.
> Basileo eclipsed the century mark against the Cougars, as her four saves pushed her season total to 101. The senior became the 12th goalkeeper in Temple history to record 100 saves in a season. Her efforts, along with the outstanding performance by the back line of Arryana Daniels, Bella Sorrentino and Keitel, earned the team its third shutout of the season.
Scouting the Knights
> UCF (8-2-2, 3-1 AAC) is led by Tiffany Roberts Sahaydak, who is in her seventh season as head coach of the Knights.
> The squad is coming off an 11-day hiatus from competition. Last time out, the Knights traveled to Houston on Sunday, Oct. 6. UCF blanked the Cougars, 3-0, behind goals from Mollie Rouse, Zandy Soree and Kristen Scott.
> Soree and Scott anchor the high-powered Knights offense. The pair have recorded seven goals each and Soree also has an assist to her name. Elise Legrout is a key facilitator for UCF, as she has dished out three assists.
> Redshirt Freshman Caroline DeLisle has played every minute in the net for UCF. She has only allowed eight goals on the season and owns a 0.64 goals against average and 0.814 save percentage. DeLisle has earned five shutouts this season.
> The Knights have netted 25 goals this season, averaging 2.08 per game. They have held their opponents to an average of 0.67 goals per game.
Series History
> UCF has dominated the all-time series against Temple, winning all eight of the matchups.
> The teams last met in the first round of the 2018 American Athletic Conference Championships on Oct. 31. The Knights defeated the Owls, 3-0, at USF's Corbett Stadium.
