NEW YORK -- The 11th-ranked Tennessee Vols conclude their northeast road trip Sunday afternoon, visiting the Columbia Lions of the Ivy League. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. at Rocco B. Commisso Stadium in New York City.
Sunday's TV broadcast will be available to ESPN+ subscribers online or through the ESPN app. More information on ESPN+ can be found at this link. Columbia will also provide live stats via SIDEARM Stats, and fans can follow @Vol_Soccer on Twitter for live match updates.
LAST TIME OUT: Tennessee (2-1) suffered its first setback of the season Thursday night with a narrow 1-0 loss at Rutgers. The Vols held possession for 58 percent of the match but were outshot 15-7 on the night. After a scoreless first half, Scarlet Knight senior forward Brittany LaPlant scored the game-winner in the 48th minute from eight yards out.
BOUNCE BACK: Since 2016, Brian Pensky's Vols have shown the ability to respond well following a loss. Tennessee owns a 12-3-1 (.781) record coming off a loss over the past three seasons and has not suffered back-to-back losses since Oct. 22, 2017.
UNCHARTED TERRITORY: Sunday's match will mark Tennessee's first time competing in the state of New York. It will also be the first time the Vols have faced an opponent from the Ivy League.
SCOUTING COLUMBIA: The Lions (0-0-1) opened their season Friday night with a 2-2 draw at in-state foe Colgate. Columbia saw goals from freshman forward Shira Cohen and senior defender Amalya Johnson.
Columbia is coming off an 8-7-1 (4-3 Ivy League) season in 2018, recording the program's third-straight winning season. The Lions return eight starters from last year, including three All-Ivy League performers in Johnson, Gracie Wall and Jessica Schildkraut. Columbia also brings back 73 percent of its scoring from a season ago.
UP NEXT: Tennessee returns to Regal Soccer Stadium Thursday, Sept. 5 to host Southeastern Louisiana. Kickoff between the Vols and Lions is set for 7 p.m.
