Women's Soccer Set for GAC Tournament

SHAWNEE – The OBU women's soccer team will look to capture a second straight GAC tournament crown as they face off against Ouachita Baptist Thursday in Weatherford, Oklahoma. The third-seeded Bison and No. 4 seed Tigers will kick off at 11 a.m. in the first of two semifinal matches.
 
OBU will look to avenge its losses earlier this season to the Tigers. Ouachita defeated the Bison, 2-1, on a last-minute goal when the teams met on Oct. 3 in Arkadelphia. OBU suffered the same fate in the matchup in Shawnee on Oct. 26, falling 4-3 in overtime.
 
The winner of game one Thursday will face off against either No. 1 SWOSU or fourth-seeded Harding in Saturday's championship match, slated for an 11 a.m. kickoff.

Live video of both semifinals, as well as the championship match, will be available on CoyoteTV with play-by-play from "Voice of the Bulldogs" Stephen McTeer.

OBU enters the tournament as the defending champion, having defeated SWOSU, 3-2, in last year's title match to sweep the regular season and postseason crowns.

The winner of the GAC Tournament earns an automatic bid to the NCAA Division II Tournament.
