The University of Toronto Varsity Blues men's and women's soccer teams take on the UOIT Ridgebacks this Sunday, September 10 at Varsity Stadium.
Â
The women kick off the action at 1 p.m., with the men to follow at 3:15 p.m. The matches are free and open to the public and will also be streamed live on OUA.tv.
Â
Toronto's men remain unbeaten through the first two weeks of OUA regular season action and are coming off a thrilling come-from-behind victory over these same Ridgebacks they will be facing on Sunday. They are ranked No. 6 in this week's U SPORTS nation poll.
Â
Down 1-0 in the 74th minute, Blues strikers Jack Wadden and Antonio Ajhert scored just 12 minutes apart to seal the victory. Wadden, a third-year striker from Ottawa, leads the Blues and ranks fifth in the province three goals and two assists for five points in four matches this season.
Â
The Blues women will look to rebound after a tough weekend on the road. Toronto opened the season with two big victories over Laurentian and Nipissing at home, before narrowly falling to the Ottawa Gee-Gees and Carleton Ravens on Labour Day weekend.
Â
Both teams welcome back their players who represented Canada at the 2017 FISU Summer Universiade in Taipei. For the men, team co-captain Lukas MacNaughton and veteran defender Koosha Nazemi return, while for the women, 2016 leading scorer and OUA first team all-star Natasha Klasios will be back on the pitch.
