The No. 29 ranked University of Denver women’s soccer team is set to take on Kansas in the First Round of the 2008 NCAA Women’s College Cup Tournament at Stanford Stadium on Friday evening. Kick-off is set for 5:30 p.m. MT.

Denver (19-2-2, 9-1-1 SBC) earned the Sun Belt Conference’s automatic national tournament berth last weekend after claiming its third consecutive and sixth overall Sun Belt Tournament crown.

Senior forward Taryn Hemmings and redshirt junior goalkeeper Mackenzie Snyder lead the Pioneers on the offensive and defensive ends of the field, respectively.

Hemmings leads DU in points (38), goals (16), assists (6), game-winning goals (8), shots (93) and shots on goal (52), while Snyder has a 0.48 goals against average and a .875 saves percentage with 10 shutouts this season.

We need DU to go deep in the tourney. Obviously the women on the soccer team are much better looking than the men's teams. ;-)
