The Baylor soccer team will wrap up its 2008 season on the road against No. 8 Texas at Mike A. Myers Field on Friday at 7:00 p.m.
"I really enjoy challenging the best teams and this weekend we get a chance to do that," head coach Marci Jobson said. "We are going to give it everything we have and see what happens."
Texas leads the all-time series against the Bears 8-5-1 and has won three-straight.
Baylor (5-11-2, 1-7-1) enters the weekend in 10th place in the Big 12 standings after dropping a pair of games at No. 20 Missouri and Kansas last weekend. The Bears are led offensively by Andi Fagan, who has 10 points (four goals and two assists) this season. Baylor will be looking to strike up its offense, which has been held scoreless in its last five games.
The Longhorns enter Friday's match 12-2-3 overall and 5-2-2 in conference, sitting fifth in the Big 12. Texas has not lost in its last five games, outscoring its opponents during that stretch, 8-1. UT currently owns a 25-game unbeaten streak at home dating back to the 2006 season. Senior Kasey Moore leads the team with six goals and four assists, while senior Dianna Pfenniger has been solid in goal with a 0.58 GAA.
