Texas Tech Takes on Auburn in 2nd Round of the NCAA Championship
The Texas Tech soccer team will look to get past the second round of the NCAA Championship for the first time in program history on Friday afternoon when they take on Auburn in a 2 pm kickoff at Donald R. Dizney Stadium in Gainesville, Florida. Tom Stone and company opened the NCAA Championship in style last Friday evening as the Red Raiders connected on eight goals in an 8-0 rout over Prairie View A&M.
Friday afternoon's NCAA second round match will be the third meeting all-time between Texas Tech and Auburn. The Red Raiders will be looking for their first ever victory over the Tigers as Auburn defeated the Red Raiders in both 2009 (3-2) and 2012 (2-1). This will be the first time the two schools have met at a neutral site as each of the previous two meetings took place at Auburn.
The winner of the match will meet the winner between Florida and California at 1 pm Sunday afternoon. You can catch all the action for this game on ESPN3 starting today at 2pm.
