Drury Women's Soccer will seek to bounce back from a tough road trip of last weekend when the Panthers play host to Maryville (5 p.m. Friday) and Missouri-St. Louis (noon Sunday) in Great Lakes Valley Conference play at Harrison Stadium in the Curry Sports Complex.

Coach Alf Bilbao's Panthers, who were the first unbeaten DU team through six matches (4-0-2) in the program's D-II history entering last weekend, dropped a 2-0 decision at Truman State on Friday and a tough 1-0 setback at Quincy on Sunday to fall to 4-2-2 overall and 2-2-2 in the GLVC.

The Panthers will entertain Maryville (3-3-2, 2-3-1 in the league) on Friday. The Saints lost 1-0 to William Jewell and 2-1 to Rockhurst at home last weekend. Maryville has outscored its opponents 10-7 on the season, with eight of its goals coming in the first half of matches. Katy Rood and Amanda Wiechens have three goals each to lead the Saints.

UMSL will take a 5-3-0 overall record and 3-3-0 mark in GLVC play into a Friday match at Missouri S&T before visiting the Panthers. The Tritons, who lost 2-0 to Rockhurst and 1-0 to William Jewell at home last weekend, have outscored their foes 12-5 on the season. Laura Hurlbut has four goals and Jen Eaton two to pace the Tritons.

Drury has outscored its opponents 10-5 on the season, with Emily Cline leading the way with three goals and Gabby Menendez and Mariah Gove scoring two each. Freshman keeper Tina Haberberger has three shutouts and 32 saves while starting all eight matches in goal.

Drury leads Maryville 3-1-1 and trails UMSL 7-6-3 in the all-time series. The Panthers won 3-0 at Maryville and tied UMSL 1-1 last year in St. Louis.
