Senior Day: Five seniors who will be playing in their final regular-season home match this afternoon will be recognized prior to kickoff. That illustrious group includes forwards Carmelina Puopolo and Meeghan Arno, midfielder Emily Benjamin, and backs Jourdan Thompson and La'Quilla Upton.
 
Last Time Out: The College of Saint Rose had its most potent offensive output of the year in league play en route to Wednesday's 5-1 victory at Northeast-10 Conference rival New Haven. Puopolo scored twice within a 10 minute span to afford the Golden Knights a 2-0 halftime lead. Sophomore forward Sammy Blizzard had a goal and an assist, while freshman forward Morgan Burchhardt set up two of the strikes. Junior midfielder Michaela Phillips and freshman forward Raven Small also scored.
 
Last Meeting (11/2/13): The Golden Knights chalked up a 4-0 victory in Waltham, MA where six different players figured in the scoring. Saint Rose engineered a 15-2 shot advantage, including a 9-2 differential in shots-on-target, and developed 17 corner kick opportunities while yielding only one. Thompson scored two goals while Phillips and Allison Schmidt had one apiece. Sydney Bond set up two of the strikes, while sophomore midfielder Emily Meeks and Niki Smith each had an assist as well.
 
Scouting Saint Rose (14-1-2/10-1-2 NE-10): The Golden Knights are ranked #6 in this week's NSCAA/Continental Tire National Poll. Puopolo scored her 15th and 16th goals of the year on Wednesday. She has now scored 15 goals three times throughout her career. She is currently seventh in the country and atop the NE-10 in both goals and points (37). Burchhardt is tied for the NE-10 lead with eight assists. Sophomore keeper Ashley Homer paces the league with a 0.45 goals-against-average. She has played all of the squad's 1,605 minutes between the posts. Saint Rose has surrendered just eight goals this season, the second best mark in the NE-10. Conversely, the Golden Knights have scored a league-high 44. Twenty of those have come in the first half, 21 in the second, and three in overtime. Furthermore, 16 different players have at least one goal this autumn.
 
Scouting Bentley (2-14-0/0-13-0 NE-10): The Falcons are coming off of Wednesday's 4-2 league setback at Merrimack in North Andover, MA. Sophomore forward Ana Tatum is their primary offensive threat. She has five goals and an assist on the year. Meanwhile, freshman keeper Deirdre Macrorie owns a 1.66 GAA throughout 1,248 minutes.
 
Up Next: Saint Rose will host an NE-10 Championship Quarterfinal next Tuesday, November 4 versus a yet to be determined opponent. That match will get underway at 4:00 pm.
