LORETTO, Pa. – Head Coach Ellie Davis announced the women's soccer fall schedule on Monday. The Red Flash opens the season at Clemson on August 19 at 7 p.m. while the home opener is against Akron on August 26 at 2 p.m. at Stokes SoccerPlex. View the full 2021 schedule HERE.

"The team is excited to finally play games again," said Davis. "We have some tough games and a young team so we will use every bit of preseason preparing them to play our non-conference schedule. The experience of playing teams like Clemson, Pitt and West Virginia, along with the other non-conference teams will get us ready for our important conference games that begin on September 19. We can't wait to play in front of family, friends and the Red Flash community at the Stokes Soccerplex soon!"
