REDHAWK HEADLINES
SERIES HISTORY
Saturday’s meeting marks the seventh all-time matchup between Seattle U and Loyola Marymount, with the Redhawks holding a 3-2-1 edge in the series. The sides first met as conference foes last season, battling to a 2-2 draw at Championship Field. Patrick Kearney and Tai Iida gave Seattle U an early two-goal lead, but the Lions rallied to earn a share of the points.
LAST TIME OUT
Seattle U fell to Washington, 1-3, in Wednesday’s Fewing Cup matchup on Montlake. Levi Bieber made eight saves to keep the Redhawks within reach, but the Huskies built a three-goal lead before Alex Notzka broke up the shutout in the 88th minute.
REDHAWKS PICKED 5th IN PRESEASON POLL
Seattle U was picked fifth in the West Coast Conference Preseason Poll, which was based on the United Soccer Coaches Preseason Poll.
NOTZKA REACHES DOUBLE DIGITS
Alex Notzka scored his 10th goal of the season in Wednesday’s match against Washington, becoming the first Redhawk to reach double-digit goals since James Morris in 2023. The junior continues to lead the conference in goals and points while ranking fifth nationally in goals.
AKOUM PICKS UP FIRST SU POINT
A steady presence on the backline, Victor Akoum tallied his first point as a Redhawk with an assist on Alex Notzka’s goal against Washington. The assist marks the third point of the defender’s collegiate career after he scored a goal at Virginia in 2024.
WISKEL HEATING UP
Nico Wiskel has recorded points in back-to-back matches, scoring against Saint Mary’s before adding an assist against Washington. The fifth-year midfielder now has five points on the season.
