Vanderbilt finished the nonconference slate with nearby foe Middle Tennessee State University. The Commodores decided to honor the seniors early and debuted new Salute to Service jerseys utilizing a similar patriotic Star V to the ones baseball has used for years and football has employed a few times. The numerals on the jersey were also filled with a stars and stripes design. Unfortunately, the Blue Raiders ruined all the pomp and circumstance with 2 second half goals that turned a one-goal Commodore lead two thirds of the way through the match into defeat. Peyton DePriest showed why she is the leading active goal scorer in all of Division 1 soccer.
