Quinnipiac women's soccer looks to get back on the winning side on Saturday as Monmouth comes to town for a 1 PM kickoff at the QU Soccer Field.

ALL-TIME AGAINST MONMOUTH (6-12-2)
SCOUTING THE HAWKS
The former Northeast Conference power Monmouth (9-1-2, 5-0-0 MAAC) has now fully established itself as a new power in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. With an all-time conference record of 123-39-16 (.736 win percentage), the Hawks have long been a power throughout the Northeast region in women's soccer. The 2013 MAAC Champions currently sit atop the MAAC standings with Niagara (4-0 MAAC) and Manhattan (3-0-1 MAAC) joining the Hawks as the lone remaining undefeated teams in league play. A consistent power in the NEC, Monmouth was nationally ranked at times in the program's stay in their first conference. Currently owning a .833 winning percentage overall (9-1-2), Monmouth has totaled two more wins than any other MAAC team thus far in 2015. The Hawks love to play an attacking style as they currently rank second in MAAC-only competition in goals per game (2.80), averaging just a tick under three goals per contest. The team defense has also been there throughout as Monmouth is tied with Rider for the lowest GAA (0.60) in the MAAC. Erica Murphy currently leads the MAAC in both goals (11) and points (23) as she has been an offensive force throughout the season. Monmouth also possesses several other threats on the offensive end outside of Murphy including Alexis McTamney (six goals, four assiss) and Rachael Ivanicki (five goals, two assists) who each has double digit point totals through 12 games. Monmouth pushes the action at all times, outshooting opponents 207-124 this season as well as outscoring the opposition 28-11 this season. Sydney Lavan has played every second of every game for the Hawks in net and comes in with a 9-1-2 record, 0.88 GAA, .792 save percentage and six shutouts through 12 games.
SENIOR DAY
Quinnipiac will honor the Bobcats' six senior class members prior to the start of Saturday's match. All six have made countless marks on the program and deserve recognition for all their achievements through the years. All five seniors who have seen time on the field this season (Barroca, Wendland, Jankowski, Eriksen and Grodzki) have contributed heavily in the Bobcats' winningest season since 2012. Jankowski broke out in 2015 with a single-season career high four goals and nine points while Eriksen has started all 10 games she has appeared as one of the team's center backs and Wendland has notched the first assists of her career this season.
FONTAINE OF YOUTH
Quinnipiac's junior midfielder Jess Fontaine has been used all throughout the field this season, leading the Bobcats with 12 points on the strength of four goals and four assists through 11 games in 2015. Her goal on Wednesday at Marist extended her total to four to tie Jessica Jankowski for the team-lead. Fontaine's 12-point junior season already has established a new single-season career-high as her previous single-season career best was nine points.
CARUSO KICKING IT IN
Kelly Caruso buried her second penalty kick of the season at Marist on Wednesday as she now ranks fourth on the team in points (two goals, three assists). Caruso has taken both penalty kicks this season for the Bobcats and hasn't missed as she is the first Bobcat since Aine McKeever in 2013 to go at least 2-for-2 from penalty kick attempts on the season.
GOING FOR GOALS
Quinnipiac's first MAAC win of 2015 came in a 4-2 win over Saint Peter's on Sept. 26. The four goals for the Bobcats marked the most goals scored in a single-game for the Bobcats since Oct. 5, 2012 (45 game stretch) when Quinnipiac defeated Wagner, 4-1, on the road.
FONTAINE OF YOUTH
One of the highest scorers in the MAAC this season has been Quinnipiac's Jess Fontaine. Normally a facilitator out of the center midfield position, Fontaine just wrapped up the most successful month of her three-year career in Sept. as she notched nine points (three goals, three assists) through seven games for the Bobcats. That nine-point total marks the highest scoring month for any Bobcat since Furtuna Velaj's senior season in 2011 while her single month scoring total also matched her single-season career-high set last year. Another notable accomplishment for the junior was her career-long four-game scoring streak which ran from Aug. 28 – Sept. 13.
AWARD SEASON
Through seven weeks of the 2015 season, Quinnipiac has now seen four individual weekly conference award winners which is tied with Siena for the second-most honorees in the MAAC this season. Nadya Gill was named Offensive Player of the Week (Aug. 31) as well as Rookie of the Week (Sept. 7). Jess Gargan picked up Rookie of the Week (Sept. 14) honors and Jankowski joined the mix with her Offensive Player of the Week honor (Sept. 28). Rider leads the MAAC with five individual award winners in 2015.
IMPORTANT IRELAND IMPORT
Freshman Jess Gargan recently had her goal scoring streak snapped at two against Rider, just five days after receiving MAAC Rookie of the Week honors for the first time in her career. Against UAlbany, Gargan scored the Bobcats' lone goal in a defeat at the hands of the Great Danes. Her first career tally in the game prior against Maine also stood up as the game-winning goal.
THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY
Quinnipiac's offensive outburst this season continued against Maine as the Bobcats scored three goals in the first 27:11 of play and went on to defeat Maine, 3-1. The three-goal first half barrage marked the first time Quinnipiac posted three goals in the first stanza since scoring three against Wagner on Oct. 5, 2012 in what resulted in a 4-1 victory.
I MEAN IT REALLY GOT OUT OF HAND FAST
Quinnipiac's three-goal first half featured the fastest recorded goal this season as Jess Fontaine found the back of the net just 1:25 into play. The Bobcats' last goal scored within the first two minutes of play came back on Sept. 30, 2011 as Furtuna Velaj scored at 1:57 in a 4-2 win over Fairleigh Dickinson.
JESS IN THE NICK OF TIME
Several Bobcats experienced career-firsts in the 3-1 win over Maine on Sept. 13, starting with the first career multi-goal game for Jess Fontaine. The Bobcats' active career scoring leader, with 10 goals and eight assists in 43 career appearances, now has a team-leading 12 points (four goals, four assists) through 11 games this season. The midfielder has either scored or assisted on 44.4 percent of the Bobcats' goals while she already set her single-season career high point total.
GARGAN-TUAN GOAL
Among the other career firsts from the 3-1 victory over Maine included the first career goal and first career game-winning tally for freshman Jess Gargan. With two assists already on the season, Gargan's first goal came less than six minutes into play as she now ranks fourth on the team with six points in 2015.
POINTS APLENTY
Through 11 games, the Bobcats have scored 18 goals and tallied 19 assists. Individually, Quinnipiac has 11 players who've registered at least one point and nine players with at least two points in 2015. The only schools in the MAAC that has more players with at least two points are Siena (13) and Canisius (11) as Quinnipiac is tied with Saint Peter's for third place.
HIGH RANKING
Quinnipiac's freshman striker Nadya Gill finds herself in some elite company as she became the first player in program history to have her first three career goals all go down as game-winners for the Bobcats. Her three game-winning tallies in 2015 also has her ranked high on the national leaderboard as she is tied for 29th in the nation in game-winning goals.
HISTORY MADE
The history-making debut season continued for Nadya Gill, as she is the first Bobcat freshman since Furtuna Velaj in the 2008 season to record at least three goals and three game-winning goals in her opening season as a Bobcat. Gill's success through her first four games is unmatched in Quinnipiac women's soccer history as she is the first player to have each of her first three career goals go down as the game-winning tally.
GIVE THE ROOK HER DUE
Another Bobcat dominating in her first season on the team has been freshman center back Sarahkate Norton. Through 11 games in 2015, Norton leads all field players in minutes played this season (904). Norton has been one of the backbones for a steady defensive effort thus far that has allowed 6.3 shots-on-goal per game.
GOING BACK-TO-BACK
A week after earning the MAAC's Offensive Player of the Week award, Nadya Gill picked up her second straight weekly conference honor as she was named the MAAC Rookie of the Week on Sept. 7. Gill continued the torrid start to her career as she became the Bobcats' first back-to-back weekly award winner since Velaj was named Northeast Conference Rookie of the Week in consecutive weeks from Sept. 22-29, 2008.
KEEP THE W'S COMING
Quinnipiac is off to their best start since the 2012 season when they started the year 6-4-1 on their way to a 9-6-1 season in their final year in the Northeast Conference. Quinnipiac's road victory against Delaware State was its first away from the QU Soccer Field since Sept. 21, 2013 when they defeated Saint Peter's, 3-0, and the first non-conference road win since Sept. 2, 2012 when they knocked off Holy Cross, 1-0. Already with two road wins in 2015, the Bobcats have compiled more road wins this season than the previous two seasons combined.
OFFENSIVE OUTBURST
Offensive output certainly hasn't been the Bobcats' weakness through the first 11 games of 2015 as Quinnipiac has already scored 18 goals, including at least two goals scored in six of 11 games this season. The average of 1.64 goals per game through 11 games to start a season is the highest goals per game average for the Bobcats in any single-season since the 2007 campaign where QU scored 27 goals (2.5 goals per game) through the first 11 contests.
OFFENSIVE OUTBURST (CONT.)
Perhaps even more impressive is the Bobcats' scoring streak hit six straight games to start the 2015 season in which QU has scored at least one goal. The last time the Bobcats started a season with a longer goal scoring streak was the 2001 campaign wherein QU scored at least one goal in all 18 games.
YOUTH MOVEMENT
After bringing in a single-season program record 13 freshmen this offseason, Quinnipiac has reloaded in a big way as nine freshmen have entered in at least one game so far this season while eight rookies have played in at least nine games games in 2014. Seven of the Bobcats' 18 goals (39 percent) and seven of the team's 19 assists (36.8 percent) have been notched by QU freshmen this season.
NADYA GILL THE THRILL
Freshman Nadya Gill made history on Aug. 31 as she was named the MAAC Women's Soccer Offensive Player of the Week. Gill became the first Quinnipiac women's soccer weekly award winner since Natalia Grodzki was named the Defensive Player of the Week twice in 2013, most recently on Oct. 28, 2013. Gill is also the first offensive player to win Player of the Week honors since Kemeshaa Woodfine on Sept. 4, 2012 and is the first rookie to be named Player of the Week since Furtuna Velaj on Oct. 6, 2008, both awards coming when the Bobcats were still a member of the Northeast Conference.
WHAT A DEBUT
Nadya Gill started her Bobcat career off with a bang as she tucked home the game-winning goal 7:46 into overtime for the Bobcats. She is the first Quinnipiac women's soccer player to have her first career goal result in the game-winner since Furtuna Velaj in 2008. Gill fired a game-high six shots and three on goal for the Bobcats against Holy Cross.
MAD-NESS
Gill was not the only freshman to tally goal in the season opener for the Bobcats as Madison Borowiec registered her first career goal with just 19 seconds remaining in the first half to provide the Bobcats with the equalizer heading into halftime. Borowiec was the first freshman since Jessica Fontaine in 2013 to score the first goal of the season for the Bobcats.
STARTING OFF THE SEASON RIGHT
Quinnipiac started off the season on a high note with its 2-1, overtime victory over the Holy Cross Crusaders on Monday. It is the first time since the 2012 season in which the Bobcats opened up the season with a win. In 2012, the Bobcats opened up the season 3-0, starting with a 1-0 win over the Providence Friars.
SENIOR ANCHOR
Goalkeeper Natalia Grodzki had a strong senior season debut for the Bobcats, making six saves in a victory over Holy Cross. It was the eighth time in her career that she had recorded at least six saves, most recently recording six saves on Oct. 22, 2014 against Manhattan. Grodzki followed that up with a two-save shutout against Delaware State to up his career win total to eight while also tallying her fifth career clean sheet. She then notched five saves to pick up her third win of the season and ninth of her career at Vermont.
UP NEXT
Quinnipiac will get one more home game on Wednesday, Oct. 14 against Manhattan at 3 PM before hitting the road for three straight MAAC road games.
