TERRIER TIDBITS

BU is in search of its first Patriot League win after coming up short against Lafayette last Saturday by a score of 3-1.
The Terriers held advantages in shots (12-9) and corners (6-3) but allowed the Leopards to score a go-ahead goal in the 50th minute.
Freshman Payton Anderson continues to lead BU in points (14), goals (6) and shots (34).
Two of sophomore Thalia Steenssens' three career goals have come in the past three games.
Seniors Rebecca Janes and Casey Thompson are tied for the squad lead in assists with four each.

SCOUTING THE RAIDERS

Like BU, the Raiders are also winless in Patriot League play.
Colgate fell at Holy Cross in overtime, 3-2, last Friday before dropping a 3-0 contest at Syracuse on Sunday.
Sophomore Ella Corbett leads the Raiders in points (7) and goals (3) while graduate student Taylor Casamassa and senior Carter Leahy each have two goals and an assist.
In goal, senior Anna Unger has played every minute thus far this season and she currently has a .705 save percentage and a 3.68 goals-against average.

SERIES HISTORY

BU is 19-1 all-time against the Raiders with the lone loss coming in the first-ever meeting in 1983.
Last season, the Terriers posted a 2-1 win over Colgate in their home opener.
