EVANSVILLE, Ind. - Entering the final weekend of non-conference play, the University of Evansville women's soccer team hosts Saint Louis on Friday at 7 p.m. before traveling to Murfreesboro, Tennessee to face Middle Tennessee at 5 p.m. on Sunday.
On Friday night, the Aces will be supporting a cause close to the program.
The Aces are partnering once again with Field of Dreams Uganda, a Missouri-based non-profit organization that uses soccer as an outlet to provide hope and education to the orphaned or otherwise vulnerable children of Uganda. Evansville has joined together with Field of Dreams Uganda over the past few years to help raise awareness and support Field of Dreams Uganda. The Aces took the ultimate step last spring, taking a trip to Uganda to work closely with children, helping with a local school while also leading empowerment workshops and soccer activities.
