WOMEN'S SOCCER
Women's soccer plays its final Ivy League road contest of the regular season Saturday afternoon at Yale. First kick in New Haven is set for 2 p.m. as the Lions continue their pursuit of the Ivy League championship. Columbia (6-3-4, 4-0-1 Ivy) enters the weekend as the leader in the conference standings after forcing a draw at Brown last weekend. The Lions would clinch the Ivy League title outright with a win and a Princeton loss this weekend. A Columbia win and a Princeton draw would allow the Lions to clinch at least a share of the title. Yale (8-5-1, 2-2-1 Ivy) is coming off a loss at Cornell last weekend. The Bulldogs handed Princeton its lone conference loss of the season on October 13 in New Haven.

MEN'S SOCCER
The men's soccer team (1-9-1, 1-2-1 Ivy) travels to Harvard (2-5-4. 1-3-0 Ivy) for its fifth match of the Ivy League season. The Lions are fifth in the league standings, two points behind Cornell for an all-important top-four spot. After scoring just one goal over their first seven matches and posting a 0-7 record, Columbia is trending up. The Lions have scored six times over their past four matches and are 1-2-1 in those contests. They have scored in each of their last four contests, averaging 1.50 goals per game over that time.
Jack McDaid and
Jackson ten Oever have scored two goals apiece to lead the Lions this season. Ten Oever found the back of the net on October 19 to give the Lions a 1-0 lead against Princeton. Harvard has split its last two Ivy League matches, besting Yale two weeks ago, 1-0, and falling at Brown last weekend, 3-1. Dylan Talledo has three goals on the year and is the Harvard's leading goal scorer, but he has not found the back of the net since September 14 against Seton Hall. Marko Isakovic and Nicholas Nyquist have two goals apiece.
