The 20th all-time meeting between the Seahawks and Tigers can be seen on FloFC.com (subscription required) with Joe Catenacci and Tom Lamont calling the action. In addition, live stats for the game will be available at UNCWStats.com.
The Seahawks, who hold the top spot in the league standings with 18 points (6-2-0), are looking to bounce back from a 3-2 overtime loss against Charleston on Thursday afternoon at soggy Ralph Lundy Field at Patriots Point.
UNCW fell behind by a 2-0 margin in the game's opening nine minutes before battling back in the second half with goals from fifth-year senior forward Audrey Harding and sophomore midfielder Madison Henry. But, the Cougars netted the game-winning marker in the 98th minute to earn the victory.
Harding, the CAA's third-leading scorer with 23 points, has been on fire lately with a goal in four of her last five games. The Akron, Ohio, product has tallied 17 of her 23 points against league opponents this season, including at least one goal against five of the eight foes to this point.
Towson, 8-6-3 overall and 3-4-1 in the CAA, will be attempting to spoil the Seahawks' plans for a regular season crown while trying to earn the final spot in the CAA Championship field. The Tigers, who are 2-2-1 in their first five fixtures, are coming off a 2-1 victory over Drexel in their home finale last Sunday.
Sophomore Nia Christopher anchors the Tigers' offensive efforts and ranks second in the CAA with 13 goals and 28 points. The Devonshire, Bermuda, native has been held to just two goals in her last six games after beginning the season with 11 markers in the opening 11 outings, including four multi-goal efforts.
