GAME LINKS
The Quinnipiac women's soccer team is set to open MAAC play this weekend as the Bobcats head down to Jersey City to face Saint Peter's on Saturday at Noon. Owning an unblemished 8-0 all-time mark against the Peacocks, Quinnipiac looks to begin their league slate with a win for just the second time since joining the MAAC in 2013 (last time the Bobcats won their first league game of a season came in 2013).
LAST GAME RECAP
Quinnipiac completed their non-conference schedule with a 2-1 overtime loss at the defending Ivy League Champion Harvard on Wednesday evening from Jordan Field. Facing the fourth-ranked team in New England on their home turf, Ally Grunstein poked home the equalizer in the 65th minute but the Crimson held off a late push from the Bobcats and found the game-winner in the fifth minute of the extra session.

NOTES
- Ally Grunstein found the back of the net for the first time this season in the 2-1 loss at Harvard, becoming the first player to score on Harvard in Cambridge this season
- Nadya Gill assisted on Ally Grunstein's goal at Harvard to increase her MAAC-leading point total to 13 (five goals, three assists) through seven games this season
- Emma Greco returned to the starting lineup at the center back position after missing two straight contests due to injury
- Hannah Reiter played 83 minutes and entered the starting lineup for the first time this season at Harvard on Wednesday
- Gill extended her point streak to three games as she has compiled seven points (three goals, one assist) over her scoring streak
- Gill notched her third career multi-goal game in the loss to Dartmouth on Sunday as she continues to lead the MAAC in goals (five) in 2017
- Olivia Myszewski's 11 saves in the 3-1 loss to Miami are not only good enough for a career high but also stand as the most posted by a Quinnipiac keeper in a single-game since Kendra Margulies made 13 stops against Lehigh on Sept. 13, 2009
- Myszewski's 11 stops tied for the third-most by a Bobcat keeper in a single-game since the program joined the NCAA Div. I ranks in 1998
- Quinnipiac's offense has been clicking on all cylinders throughout 2017, leading the MAAC in scoring offense at 1.71 goals per game (12 goals in seven games)
- Miraculously, Quinnipiac's offense has ranked first in the MAAC all season despite averaging the second-fewest shots per game (7.71) in the conference
- The source of that offensive production has come all over the lineup as four Bobcats (Nadya Gill, Al Pelletier, Madison Borowiec and Kelsey Goldring) have at least six points apiece (all have at least two goals and two assists)
- No team in MAAC history has had more than two players ranked consecutively atop the conference scoring total leaderboard at the end of a season
- Quinnipiac saw their 11-game home win streak come to an end with the 3-1 loss to Miami. That 11-game run combining their undefeated 2016 home mark (9-0) with a perfect 2-0 to start 2017 gave the Bobcats their second-longest home winning streak in program history (record 12 straight home wins between 2000-01 seasons)
- Goldring and Borowiec are both enjoying breakthrough seasons as the pair have seven and six points, respectively, so far in 2017. Goldring pumped in the Bryant overtime game-winner as she has been a major contributor on offense after redshirting the 2016 campaign. Borowiec dished out two assists in the win over Bryant, good enough for her first career multi-assist game, as she has already matched her entire scoring output from the 2016 season
