No. 9 DBU and Angelo State meet for the third time this season in the second round of the NCAA DII South Central Regional.  

LAST TIME OUT               
DBU earned a 2-1 victory against the MSU Denver Roadrunners in a thrilling fashion. The first round of the South Central Regional kicked off with a goal by Anne Louthan assisted by McKenna Vela in the eighth minute. The Patriots held onto their lead until the 70th minute when MSU Denver's Brooklyn Gold found the equalizer.  

In a last-ditch effort to secure the win, the Patriots created an offensive surge that ended in McKenna Vela finding Anne Louthan again with just a minute and a half remaining in the match. The Patriots came away with the victory and advanced further into the postseason.
