Gators Freshmen Scoring:
Florida is the only SEC program with freshmen as its top three scorers – Addy Hess and Kai Tsakiris (4 goals each) and Sophia Sindelar (3).
Texas is next with two freshmen among the top three Longhorn goal scorers. Eight SEC teams have no freshmen among their top three 2025 scorers.
Last Match:
On a night meant to honor experience, it was the heart of two freshmen that lit the way. Their crucial goals powered Florida soccer to a memorable 2-1 Senior Night win over 12th-ranked Mississippi State at Donald R. Dizney Stadium.
The scores by freshmen Sophia Sindelar and Addy Hess were anchored by UF's combined defensive effort versus a Bulldog team which stood second in the Southeastern Conference in goal scoring. It was the Gators first win versus a top-12 team since the 3-1 win over then No. 12 Texas A&M on Oct. 6, 2019. Florida's current five-match SEC unbeaten streak is its longest since the 2016 season.
The Bulldogs opened the scoring in the 18th minute Zoe Main took the pass from Tatum Borum to score on a right-footed one-touch from near the penalty spot. Florida tied the match in the 40th minute. Kai Tsakiris drove end line outside the box. Tsakiris' angled pass sent just before hitting the end line was touched by Skye Barnes to Sophia Sindelar. The 10-yard right-footed shot by Sindelar scored at the far post for her third goal of the season. The Gators second goal in a 10-minute span gave UF a 2-1 lead in the 50th minute. Lena Bailey received the ball at midfield, spun and then headed end line. Her cross found Addy Hess right above the six-yard box. Her right-footed shot deflected off the goalkeeper back to her. Hess then used her left to score her fourth goal of the season.
In the 57th minute, MSU's leading scorer Ally Perry and UF midfielder Charlotte McClure received red cards after a skirmish on the field. Both teams played a man-down for the remainder of the match. Florida last played a man-down Oct. 24, 2024 at Alabama.
After her performance Friday, Hess picked up her second Southeastern Conference Freshman of the Week honor. SEC weekly honors have gone to the Gators four times this season (Sept. 1 Freshman: Hess; Sept. 22 Defender: Paloma Peña; Sept. 29 Freshman: Kai Tsakiris).
