Texas A&M soccer returns to action on Thursday at 6PM when they face Arkansas in Fayetteville. The Aggies are looking to stop the season free fall and buck several negative trends.
The Aggies are looking stay above .500 on the season, notch their first SEC win of the season (the Ags are currently 0-3 in conference play), and end the 4 game losing streak they have to Arkansas.
That's a lot on the line against a team that comes in ranked #12 and is looking for their 4th consecutive SEC title. Arkansas advanced to the Elite Eight last year before being eliminated on PKs. Arkansas is 7-2-1 this season with a 2-1 mark in conference play. Both losses have been surprising. A 0-1 loss at Saint Louis started the regular season and an 0-2 loss at Mississippi State started the conference season. In their other two conference games, Arkansas dispatched Auburn 1-0 and #8 South Carolina 1-0.
On the season, Arkansas has outscored opponents 22-8 and outshot them 162-100. The Razorbacks are placing just over 50% of their shots on frame. The goals have come from all around as 6 Arkansas players have multiple goals this year. All-American senior forward, Anna Podojil is tied for the team high in goals with 4, along with 4 assists.
Anna Podojil is probably the best and most impactful player in Arkansas soccer history, giving the school their first All-American and MAC Hermann semi-finalist. Arkansas' only three SEC season titles have come in her Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior years. Well, she's a senior now.
