WOMEN'S SOCCER
Columbia (6-3-3, 4-0-0 Ivy) is back on the road this weekend to face Brown (5-3-4, 2-1-1 Ivy) in an important road contest. The Lions enter the matchup on a five-game win streak after escaping with a 1-0 win over Dartmouth last Sunday on a converted penalty kick in the 87
th minute. With the win and a Princeton loss Sunday, Columbia sits at the top of the current Ivy League standings with three league games remaining. Brown enters the weekend after playing to a scoreless draw at Penn on Sunday. Brown defeated Yale, 2-0 earlier in the week. In the last meeting between Columbia and Brown, the Lions prevailed, 2-1 in a double overtime thriller to advance to the Ivy League Tournament championship game in Providence.
