Schneider Begins Play at CONCACAF

WILMINGTON, North Carolina – UNCW sophomore goalkeeper Sydney Schneider and the Jamaica Women's National Team begins their quest for the CONCACAF Women's Championship on Friday, Oct. 5, with an 8:30 p.m. contest against Canada at H-E-B Park in Edinburg, Texas.

Jamaica will play three matches during the group stage of the eight-team tournament. After its opener against Canada, Jamaica faces Costa Rica on Monday, Oct. 8, before closing out the stage against Cuba on Thursday, Oct. 11.

The CONCACAF Women's Championship field consists of two groups with Canada, Jamaica, Costa Rica and Cuba playing games in Edinburg, Texas. The United States, Panama, Mexico and Trinidad & Tobago are playing at Sahlen's Stadium at WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary, N.C.

Schneider, whose grandparents were born in Jamaica and whose mother hails from the Caribbean island, helped Jamaica qualify for the CONCACAF Women's Championship by going undefeated during the Caribbean Zone qualifier in late August.

In six games for the Seahawks this season, the Dayton, N.J., native has authored a 1.20 goals against average while stopping 74.0 percent of the shots she has faced. Schneider had a season-high five saves in a 3-1 victory over VCU on Aug. 17 and tallied four saves at Northeastern on Sept. 23.

The top two finishers from each group advance to the final round at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas. The semifinals will take place on Sunday, Oct. 14, while the third place game and championship are scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 17.
