The University of Kentucky women’s soccer program officially kicked off its 13th season today with the beginning of fall preseason workouts. Warren Lipka, the only head coach in the history of the Wildcat program, returns with a team poised to make the school’s seventh NCAA Tournament appearance. His 2003 team extended the program’s run as the only school in the conference to qualify for all 11 SEC Tournaments. Despite a different non-conference slate and an always challenging SEC schedule, Lipka sees big things ahead for his 2004 squad.
“There is a great deal of talent returning to our squad this season, and I expect those veterans to blend with our newcomers to form a well-balanced team,” Lipka said.
Junior Ashley Schillig and sophomore Elisabeth Jones lead the Kentucky attack after solid initial seasons at UK a season ago. Schillig came to Lexington after a terrific freshman season at Marshall and dented the net four times. Jones, a Lexington Christian Academy product, made the SEC All-Freshman team a year ago after tallying three goals and two assists.
