September 06, 2025 | Women's Soccer
TAMPA, Fla. (September 6, 2025) – The University of South Florida women's soccer team returns to the friendly confines of Corbett Stadium on Sunday, September 7. South Florida (2-4) hosts Stetson (3-3) for a 6 p.m. matchup on ESPN+.
Earlier this week, Gentiana Fetaj was named the American Conference Defensive Player of the Week. She played a pivotal role in the South Florida defense and the attack. She provided a beautiful through ball from the defensive half of the field that led to an assist on the lone USF goal for the week. Defensively, she helped limit the goals surrendered to just one, which was against a nationally ranked opponent in No. 19 Wake Forest. Hedda Ornberg earned a spot on the weekly honorable mention list.
Setting the Stage
South Florida bounced back with a 1-0 road victory against UNC Greensboro. Stetson is coming off a 7-0 loss on the road against Florida State.
