Missouri State is off to a 2-0 Missouri Valley Conference start, and hosts a pair of 2-0 MVC clubs this weekend at JQH Arena in a pair of key early-season contests against the other two preseason top-three Valley teams.
The Missouri State women’s soccer team is hosting The Valley at the Betty and Bobby Allison South Stadium on Nov. 3-5.
The Lady Bears will play 13 games against 10 teams that participated in a postseason tournament in 2016-17, including six contests during the league season and seven as part of a difficult non-conference schedule.
The Bears will play 15 home games at JQH Arena again this season, matching last season for the most regular-season games ever in the 11,000-seat facility.
The Missouri State men’s soccer team is predicted to finish third in the Missouri Valley Conference, according to a preseason poll voted on by the league’s coaches.
