SCAC Championships





This weekend, Trinity's soccer teams will travel to Birmingham, AL to participate in the first SCAC Soccer Championship Tournament since 1992. The SCAC chose Birmingham, AL as the pre-determined site for both tournaments. Both the men's and women's teams enter the 2011 SCAC Championships as the #1 seed and will await the quarterfinal winners from Friday, November 4 in Saturday's Semifinal. Birmingham Southern College have provided a tournament website where information can be found with results, updates, stats and video. Click HERE to link directly there.

The ladies finished their second undefeated regular season in the past three seasons going 18-0. The regular season finale took place last Sunday in Irving, TX. Despite outshooting the University of Dallas 27-3, it took nearly the duration of regulation and the first overtime to find the back of the net. Team and conference goalscoring leader, first-year, Stephanie Segovia, netted her 22nd goal of the season as she broke free on the left side smacking a ball into the top of the far corner. The goal secured the immediate win as well as the top seed in this weekend's tournament.

A note to remember....

The NCAA championship committee will announce the 64-team field on Monday, November 7. Currently sitting atop the NCAA's West Region rankings, Trinity will be hoping to extend their 2011 win streak to 19...and then 20...which would secure the AQ from the SCAC. The girls are well aware of the importance of the UPCOMING match, and will not be looking beyond that. That matchup will be against the winner of #4 Rhodes and #5 Hendrix.

COME ON LADIES!!!
