MACON, Ga. – The Mercer women's soccer team finishes up a week of preparation today in Ft. Myers, Fla. for Friday's semi-final match of the 2011 Atlantic Sun Championships against No. 2 East Tennessee St. Kick-off for tomorrow's match is set for 4 p.m. at the Florida Gulf Coast Soccer Complex.

The No. 6 Bears advanced to their fourth semi-finals in the last five years by taking out No. 3 Jacksonville last week in penalty kicks. Mercer's Casey Barrett scored a second-half goal to tie the game up and then the Bears were able to net four of their five penalty kick attempts to knock out the Dolphins for the second year in a row.  

Mercer and ETSU met just two weeks ago in the regular season finale, with ETSU taking a tough 2-1 victory in Johnson City, Tenn. Mercer senior Olivia Tucker scored in that game to give her a team-high nine goals on the year.

The Lady Bucs have put together a remarkable season, going 12-4-1 to finished as co-champions of the conference with a 7-1-1 A-Sun record. This is ETSU's highest tournament seed in program history, with the team's lone tournament win coming in 2007 over Stetson.
