The No. 5-ranked Lindsey Wilson women's soccer team returns to action tomorrow to take on No. 16-ranked Georgia Gwinnett in a top 25 battle at the Grizzly Soccer Complex in Lawrenceville, Georgia at 6pmCT.

Sophomore forward Sina Cavelti serves as the anchor for the Lindsey Wilson offense, leading the team with 10 goals, 24 points, 53 total shots, and 26 shots on goal.

The Georgia Gwinnett women's soccer team (10-4-1) returns to action after defeating Life (Ga.) 4-0 at home on Monday night.

Sophomore defender Joy Mertzig has a team-high 13 goals and 28 points this season.
