CHARLOTTESVILLE – The third-ranked Virginia women’s soccer team continues a three-game road trip Thursday as it visits Duke. Game time at Koskinen Stadium in Durham, N.C. is 7 p.m. and the matchup will be broadcast on ESPN3.
Virginia (14-1, 6-1 ACC) is riding a four-game win streak after opening its road trip with a 2-1 victory Sunday at Louisville. The Cavaliers lead the ACC and rank second nationally in scoring offense at 3.47 goals per game. Junior Makenzy Doniak (Chino Hills, Calif.) leads the league in scoring with 28 points on 10 goals and eight assists. Senior Danielle Colaprico (Freehold, N.J.) leads the ACC with 11 assists.
The Blue Devils are 7-7-1 this season and 3-3-1 in the ACC after a 3-0 loss to North Carolina on Sunday. Duke is 1-3-1 over its last five games after starting the conference season with a pair of victories.
Virginia leads the all-time series 19-12-7, including an 8-4-4 advantage in Durham. The Cavaliers are unbeaten (8-0-2) in the regular season vs. Duke since 2004, including a 4-0-1 record in Durham, but the Blue Devils have won all three postseason games during that span (all in NCAA Tournament). In last year’s meeting in Durham, Virginia rallied from a 2-0 halftime deficit for a 3-2 victory.
Virginia will conclude its three-game road trip Sunday with a visit to No. 14 Virginia Tech. Game time in Blacksburg is 5 p.m. There is one point at stake in the Virginia529 Commonwealth Clash, the new point rivalry series between University of Virginia and Virginia Tech. The Cavaliers currently lead the 2014-15 competition 1.5 to 0 after victories in men’s soccer and volleyball.
