Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - The Quinnipiac women's rugby team will hit the road and travel to western Pennsylvania to face off with Notre Dame College for an NIRA showdown at Founders field on Saturday, September 29th. The game is slated to begin at 1:00 PM.
GAME NOTES:
LAST TIME OUT
The Falcons meet the Bobcats in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania after 47-7 victory over Mt. St. Mary's this past weekend. They currently stand at 2-1 on the season with their lone loss coming against Dartmouth College.
OH CAPTAINS MY CAPTAINS
Emily Roskopf and Mikah Maples has combined for eight tries so far this season. Roskopf is coming off a three-trie performance in the Bobcats' first victory of 2018. Maples is currently on a three-game trie streak after notching another try against Norwich a few weeks ago.
THEY'REEEE BAAAAACK
The Bobcats have a wealth of talent returning, including All-American Emily Roskopf, who will be trying to pull off the rare feat of winning four national titles in four years of college (along with fellow senior Caitria Sands). Junior Mikah Maples also emerged as a significant offensive weapon last season, scoring twice in both the NIRA Semifinals and Finals, while last year's freshman class, led by regular starters Carson Hann, Destiny Henry and Jordan Cowan, had an immediate impact on last year's national title team and will take on even larger roles as sophomores.
