Soccer Live Updates: No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 2 Duke

  • by

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — It isn’t a stretch to call this the biggest game in Alabama soccer history to date.

Coach Wes Hart and his team are in the Elite Eight for the first time in program history, and will have the chance to advance to the College Cup for the first time ever. To do so, however, Alabama will have to defeat the 2-seed in the region, the Duke Blue Devils.

Both programs play an aggressive style, complemented by the play of the forwards. For Alabama, Riley Mattingly Parker has a chance to further put her name in the record books as her 17 goals and 41 points are both program records for a single season. For Duke, sophomore Michelle Cooper holds the program record with 45 points, and her 17 goals currently rank second.
