The Plot: The College of Saint Rose welcomes Saint Michae'ls for a
Northeast-10 Conference match at
Sullivan Field at the Plumeri Sports Complex this afternoon.
Last Meeting (10/19/11): Brittany Godin tipped in a cross from Gianna D'Errico in the 13th minute that stood up as the lone goal in a 1-0 Saint Rose victory in Colchester, VT. Junior keeper Jessica Gerski made three saves in the shutout while her counterpart, Ashleigh Adams, picked up the loss despite thwarting 12 shots-on-target.
Scouting #1 Saint Rose (7-0-1/5-0-1 NE-10): The Golden Knights, who entered the week with the nation's second most potent offense behind 4.0 goals per-game, rallied from an early 1-0 hole in Wednesday's match at Pace to earn a 3-1 win. Junior forward Carmelina Puopolo added to her conference-leading 27 points (9-9-27) with the equalizer while junior midfielder Sydney Bond netted the game-winner to stretch her goal-scoring streak to three matches. Bond is now third in the NE-10 in both goals and points (8-2-18). Freshman midfielder Kristin Carr is also among the league's top-10 with 13 points (5-3-13). Gerski has allowed only two goals in 614 minutes throughout eight matches. She has also made 18 saves. The Golden Knights are 32-0-2 since they began playing on this pitch in 2010.
Scouting Saint Michael's (1-6-1/1-4-1 NE-10): The Purple Knights have lost back-to-back 1-0 home decisions against Adelphi and Saint Anselm. Four different individuals have recorded one goal this season. Three of them also have an assist. Sophomore forward Meagan Brady has the team's only game-winning goal thus far. Freshman keeper Kaylee Sullivan has played in six games and started five. She has recorded 21 saves and a 1.37 goals-against-average.
Up Next: Saint Rose continues play on Sullivan Field this upcoming Tuesday when American International visits for an NE-10 match. Kickoff is scheduled for 5:30 pm. Saint Michael's is also in action on Tuesday with a 7:00 pm conference date at Franklin Pierce in Rindge, NH.
