MATCH DAY IN MIAMI. Howard closes out its Florida trip this afternoon with a road matchup at FIU as the Bison look to turn a strong early stretch into their first win of the season. Leading the way is freshman Dominique Desert. The Park Ridge, New Jersey native has started all three matches to open her Howard career and currently leads the Bison with 1 goal and 2 points. Desert scored her first collegiate goal against Hampton and was one of four Howard players to record a shot in the last match against FAU. In goal, senior Trinity Knox continues to anchor the Bison defense. Knox has posted 27 saves through three matches, including 10 in Howard’s last outing, and was recently named NEC Co-Defensive Player of the Week. Howard enters at 0-1-2, while FIU comes in at 0-2-3, still looking for its first win of the season. According to FIU’s official records, this is the first meeting between the programs since 2000. 📍 Miami, FL ⏰ 1 PM ET 📺 ESPN+ #HuWSxNSMT #HowardBison #HowardWSoc
