ASHLAND – After sitting on its first Cascade Conference setback for a week, the Southern Oregon University women's soccer team will get a chance to bounce back at Raider Stadium against Northwest Christian on Saturday and Corban on Sunday.

The Raiders (4-2-1 overall, 2-1 CCC) had been unbeaten in five straight before dropping a 2-0 game at Eastern Oregon. The result was on par with the parity displayed throughout the conference already: Just two weeks in, every team has at least one loss or a tie attached to their record. Northwest Christian (2-6, 1-3) will arrive in Ashland near the bottom of the standings, while Corban (6-3, 3-1) is tied for the points lead. Both games start at 11 a.m.

ASHLAND SOCCER CLUB DAY: On Saturday, all members of the Ashland Soccer Club and their parents will be celebrated with free admission to both SOU-Corban games. Kids 12-and-under get in free to all SOU home events thanks to Oak Tree Northwest's sponsorship of the Kids Free program.

NAIA TOP 25: The Raiders have never held a Top 25 spot in the 19-year history of the program, but they've received votes in both polls released over the last two weeks. They totaled three voter points in Tuesday's latest poll, making them No. 38 overall. The CCC isn't represented in the Top 25, though Eastern Oregon is just three spots out with 40 voter points.
