ACC women’s college soccer action continues Thursday night as No. 25 Virginia hosts NC State.
NC State will take a trip to Charlottesville on Thursday night for an ACC matchup against No. 25 Virginia as the Wolf Pack look to pull off the upset. NC State has struggled a bit this year and bring a two-game losing streak into Thursday’s contest. The team is 3-8-2 overall and is still winless in ACC play at 0-4-1. Last week, the Wolf Pack hosted Boston College. While they were able to keep the game close, the Wolf Pack ultimately fell in a 2-1 defeat. The lone goal was scored by Jade Bordeleau in the 55th minute to even the score at 1-1, but the Eagles were able to put in the game winner with 14 minutes remaining on the clock. Olivia Pratapas played the full game in net for NC State and made two saves, but it wasn’t enough and the team was forced to walk away with another conference loss.

The Cavaliers got off to a strong start this season, quickly climbing the rankings to No. 2 by the time conference play began. Things have been cooling off for Virginia, however, and after four straight losses, the Cavaliers will look to get back on track Thursday night with a win on Senior Night. In its last match, the team took on No. 2 Duke (now No. 1), playing to a 3-1 loss on the road. The Blue Devils were able to put three goals in the net before Virginia’s Meredith McDermott finally scored, but with that goal coming in the 80th minute, it was too big of a deficit for the team to make up. Victoria Safradin saw 13 shots in the game with five being on frame and she was able to make two saves in the contest.
Both Virginia and NC State desperately need to get back in the win column as there are only five games remaining in the regular season. The last time these two programs met was last season. As it began to wind down NC State earned a 2-1 victory at home.
