Stat Speak
- All six of OSU's goals this season have come in the first half.
- In its first two matches, OSU outshot its opponents by a 36-10 margin and owned a 21-5 edge on corner kicks. The Cowgirls lead the Big 12 in corners after opening weekend, and they scored a pair of goals directly off corners as Julia Lenhardt and Coumba Sow each headed in chances vs. UMKC.
- OSU's 13 corner kicks against Loyola tied for the seventh most in a single game in program history, just four shy of the record of 17 set in 2001.
- Jaci Jones already has three assists on the season after recording four in 20 games as a freshman last season. Jones assisted on both OSU goals in Friday's opener and added another on Sunday.
- Anna Beffer tallied a pair of assists against UMKC and now has 11 in her career. A year ago, she ranked eighth in the Big 12 with five assists.
Up Next
- OSU travels to Norman on Friday for the first of two matches against Bedlam-rival Oklahoma this season. Friday's contest kicks off at 7 p.m. and is a non-conference affair. The two teams will meet again for their Big 12 Conference-opening match in Stillwater on Sept. 22.
- The Cowgirls are 20-8-3 all time against the Sooners, but OU has won the last four meetings, three of those via shutout.
- OU is 0-1-1 on the season, dropping its season opener at home to Arizona, 2-0, before battling SMU to a scoreless draw in Dallas on Sunday.
- Following the Bedlam clash, OSU returns home to host Creighton, who opened its season with a 3-0 loss at Iowa State last weekend. The Blue Jays face a test at Wisconsin Thursday before traveling to Stillwater for a Sunday contest set to kick off at noon.
