Fresh off of a pair of shutouts in its last two games, the Auburn soccer team will look to keep that momentum going as it heads to Tallahassee, Fla., for a Saturday night date with No. 11 Florida State. The two teams will square off in a 7pm ET match as Auburn looks to snap a five-match losing streak to FSU.

Auburn (2-1-1) and goalkeeper Allison Whitworth have not allowed a goal in the last 180 minutes of play, blanking both Troy (1-0) and Pittsburgh (3-0) last weekend as Auburn opened its home schedule. Ashley Marks scored three of AU's four goals over the weekend, including the game-winner in both matches, and was named the SEC Freshman of the Week on Monday.

Florida State (3-2-0) is coming off an impressive 8-0 win over Troy and has a 22-match home unbeaten streak (20-0-2) that will be put on the line on Saturday night. FSU is also on a two-match home shutout streak as it held Francis Marion scoreless on Sept. 7. FSU's two losses have been 2-1 scores as it lost to Portland in overtime to open the season and then fell at Florida this past Sunday.

The match will be carried live on the internet at www.auburntigers.com as well as in the Auburn-Opelika area on 910 AM.
