SCOUTING THE SEAHAWKS
Wagner is 7-4 overall and 7-3 in the NEC, currently in position to host a conference semifinal by virtue of a season sweep of LIU. The Seahawks have taken the third-most shots per game in the country (37.82), while ranking sixth in caused turnovers per game (11.18) and eighth in fewest turnovers committed per contest (12.73).
 
Erin Kerstetter leads the Seahawks with 31 goals and 27 assists; the assist total ranks in the top 25 nationally. Kasey Dorney is eighth nationally in caused turnovers per game at 2.64.
 
SERIES HISTORY
Wagner is 17-2 in the all-time series with Saint Francis capturing a pair of one-goal wins in 2010 and 2017. The Red Flash and Seahawks will meet twice in the same season for the first time Wednesday.
 
LAST TIME OUT: WAGNER 19, SAINT FRANCIS 4
The Seahawks jumped out to a strong advantage and led throughout in the first meeting of the year between the teams Saturday on Staten Island. Junior Catherine Russo led the Red Flash with two goals.
 
RECORD PLAYER
Senior Emileigh Scott tied Kate Simmons for second in program history in goals with her 136th career tally Saturday at Wagner. Scott moved to third in career points April 17 and currently has 151 for her Red Flash career in addition to a program-record 330 draw controls.
 
NEW YORK STATE OF MIND
Junior Catherine Russo played in the Red Flash's two games in New York State this year – a March 24 contest at LIU and Saturday's game at Wagner.
 
The Long Islander took three shot attempts in those two games and scored on all three of them.
 
CAUSING TROUBLE FOR OPPONENTS
Redshirt senior Peyton LeConte has recorded 2.45 caused turnovers per game this season, which ranks 10th nationally. LeConte stands at 99 career caused turnovers entering Wednesday.
 
Sophomore Erika Ellison has recorded six caused turnovers in her five games since entering the starting lineup in the March 27 win over Merrimack.
 
A HELPFUL NOTE
Redshirt senior Livia Baker enters Wednesday two assists shy of the top 10 program history. Baker, who cracked the top 10 in goals earlier this month, is five points shy of 100 for her Red Flash career.

SUPER SAVER
Junior Elyssa Enrique ranks 17th nationally in save percentage at .482 through 11 games. Enrique has turned aside 11 shots per game, which is eighth in the nation.
 
UP NEXT: MOUNT ST. MARY'S
Saint Francis has one makeup game remaining on its schedule with a trip to Mount St. Mary's. The status of that game and its rescheduling date and time are to be determined.
