TOWSON, Md. – The Towson University women's soccer team will start its final regular season stretch of the season with three road games, two happen this week against Campbell on Thursday at 6 p.m. and Elon on Sunday at 1 p.m.

When: Thursday, Oct 16 & Sunday, Oct 19
Where: Buies Creek, N.C. & Elon, N.C.
Time: 6 p.m. and 1 p.m.
Stream: Flo College (Elon only)
Team Records: Towson (3-4-6) @ Campbell (4-5-4) and Elon (7-2-4)

In their last time out, the Tigers lost to Monmouth 3-0. Towson is in fourth place in the North Division with three games to play. They currently sit on six points, three points behind Hofstra for the third North Division berth. With the way the schedule and tiebreakers work out, Towson must gain points on Hofstra this week to still have a shot to overtake them in the standings on the final Sunday of the season. Hofstra plays South Division leaders UNCW and Charleston this week.

2025 OUTLOOK
While head coach Katherine Vettori will have to replace all-league performers Riley Melendez, Maja Hansson and Demi Pierre, six starters return from the 2024 squad that went undefeated during the month of October – finishing that stretch with four wins and three ties, including three of the top four point producers: Sophie Thibeault (7 goals, 2 assists), Malin Bernt Schöps (4g, 1a) and Kale'a Perry (2g, 3a). Three other starters, midfielder Emma Levin and defenders Brooke Birrell and Sydney Lindeman, also return.
Towson was picked to finish fourth in the 2025 Coastal Athletic Association (CAA) North Division in the preseason coaches' poll – behind Stony Brook, Monmouth and Hofstra and ahead of Northeastern and Drexel. Starting this season, CAA women's soccer has been separated into two divisions, North and South. Each team will play all teams in its division plus four matches against the other division. The top three teams in each division will qualify for the 2025 CAA Championship.

FRESH FACES
Towson welcomed nine new players this season, five freshman and four transfers: defenders Gracen Houck, (Morehead State) and Emma Kirkpatrick (Rhode Island), forward Luisa Navas Gonzalez (Mount St. Mary's) and midfielder Emely Rubio (Campbell). The four bring 181 games of collegiate experience from their previous institutions. Rubio and Houck spent the 2025 spring semester with Towson.

SCOUTING THE OPPONENTS
Campbell is currently tied with William & Mary for the third and final spot in the postseason out of the South Division. Elon is currently in fifth place, trailing by three points, but had their match against Hampton postponed on Sunday.

NEXT UP
Towson will play the final game of the regular season on the road starting against Drexel on Sunday, Oct. 25. Drexel has only scored nine goals on the season in 15 games. They have been held scoreless in nine of their last 12 games.
