Full Notes

Kansas City will take on the Pioneers tomorrow at 8 p.m.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Kansas City Men's Soccer travels to Denver for a battle of two teams atop the Summit League standings tomorrow at 8 p.m. Both teams have seven points in conference play, the Roos standing at 2-1-1, Denver at 2-0-1.

Kansas City Notes

The Roos are coming off their first conference loss of the season, a 3-1 decision at the hands of Oral Roberts. The loss came despite KC attempting 11 more shots than the Golden Eagles.
Christian Koffi reached the record books with his performance against ORU, attempting 13 shots on the night. That mark broke Larry Scheller's program single-game record of 10 that had stood for nearly 21 years.
Koffi's 13 shots attempted also stands as the most in a single game by a player in Division One this season, and is tied for the most in a single game in the past three seasons.
Kazuki Kimura has been the Roos' top goal-scoring threat on the year, tallying four total. His average of 0.44 goals per game ranks second in the Summit League and is 105th in the nation.
Samuel Nagy reached the score sheet in the Roos' game against Oral Roberts, his first collegiate goal. He has attempted three shots on the year, the second-most by any KC freshmen.
After playing just 92 minutes across five non-conference appearances, Carson Lindsey has started in all four of the Roos' conference contests, including two 90-minute showings.
Cooper Clark averages 4.1 saves per game, ranking 39th in the nation.

Denver Notes

Denver enters this weekend's contest with the best conference win percentage in the league at .833. They are one of two teams to have not lost a league contest.
The Pioneers have made the most of an intense schedule, picking up five results (two wins, three draws) against nationally ranked opponents.
Denver comes into this contest after back-to-back draws on the road against St. Thomas and No. 25 Pittsburgh.
The Roos and Pioneers played twice last season, with both contests resulting in draws. Denver advanced in the Summit League Semifinal matchup, defeating the Roos 4-3 in PKs en route to an NCAA Tournament berth.
Sam Bassett leads DU with five goals scored.
