Creighton Soccer Going Green
Spearheaded by sophomore Emma Yackley, the Creighton men's and women's soccer programs will be hosting Green Games on Thursday, September 30th (women's vs. Marquette at 7:00 pm) and Saturday, October 2nd (men's vs. UIC at 7:00 pm).
Both matches will be carbon neutral and zero waste, meaning the electricity consumed at the games will be offset by credits purchased by a sponsor (FCC) and all concessions will be composted or recycled.
Bins will be set out to collect gently used athletic equipment and gear. These items will be donated to CUES, an organization representing three diverse, low-income Catholic elementary schools in Omaha.
Additionally, these games will be hosting a 'Green' Club Fair spread across the two events.
The goal of these games is to promote a sustainable culture at Creighton and within our community, as well as to educate attendees about environmental stewardship.

Scouting Marquette (5-4-0, 1-1-0 BIG EAST)
After dropping its BIG EAST opener at home to Butler 1-0 (Sept. 23), Marquette responded with a 3-1 win at Villanova on Sunday. The Golden Eagles are 1-2 on the road this season.
Mikki Easter has guided the Marquette defense from the net for the vast majority
this season. She enters the match at Morrison Stadium with a paltry 0.68 goals against average (GAA) and 22 saves. On the season the Golden Eagles have allowed 15 goals in nine games, but Easter has allowed just five of them in 660 minutes on the pitch.
Offensively the Golden Eagles have four players with multiple goals in 2021. Rachel Johnson and Maggie Starker pace the offense with three goals, while Elsi Twombly and Katrina Wetherell have two.
Scouting Creighton (6-3-2, 0-1-1 BIG EAST)
Creighton's defense have been stellar throughout the season, allowing just five goals total in 11 matches.
Junior goalkeeper Keelan Terrell saw her scoreless streak end at 508 minutes (507:38), snapped by at Iowa State on Thursday, September 16. Terrell has six shutouts this season and leads the BIG EAST with a 0.43 GAA.
Sophomore Abigail Santana guides the Bluejay offense with a team best seven goals. Adjusting to a new role in the midfield, Aida Kardovic has one goal and one assist.
Marquette Has Some Familiarity on the Bench in Former Bluejay Erin Scott
Marquette goalkeeper coach Erin Scott has more than just a little familiarity with Morrison Stadium. Scott began her playing career at Creighton in 2015 and 2016.
Scott was Creighton's starting keeper in 2015, starting all 20 matches. She stopped 108 shots as a rookie for Creighton, second-most in a single season in program
history. The following season she appeared in five matches.
Scott left Creighton following the 2016 season with a 12-12-1 combined record in 2,196 minutes (2,195:45). Erin went on to Campbell University, where she also began her coaching career.
The match has an environmental push as Creighton's first "Green Game".
