Last Time Out: Franklin Pierce scored once in each half to hand The College of Saint Rose a 2-1 setback in Northeast-10 Conference action Saturday on this pitch. There was plenty of scoring opportunities as the squads engineered 16 shots collectively.

Last Meeting (10/16/13): Juan Garzon drove home his own rebound with a mere 17 seconds remaining in regulation to lift the Golden Knights to a 1-0 victory at Assumption in Worcester, MA. The host Greyhounds manufactured a 20-10 shot differential, including a 10-7 advantage in shots on target, but Balkwell was equal to the task to register his first shutout in a Saint Rose uniform. Balkwell made eight of his 10 stops in the first half when Assumption outshot Saint Rose 13-4. For the Greyhounds, junior keeper Dana King made six saves between the posts.

Scouting Saint Rose (1-9-1/1-6-0 NE-10): Saturday's setback marked the squad's seventh, one-goal loss this season. Junior midfielder Nick Iuorno and freshman midfielder Kledis Capollari lead the team with three goals apiece. Balkwell owns a 1.54 goals-against-average throughout 878 of the team's 1013 minutes.

Scouting Assumption (2-7-1/2-4-1 NE-10): Assumption snapped a three-match skid with Saturday's 4-0 victory versus league rival Saint Anselm.
