SCOUTING THE HOOSIERS
Indiana comes into this matchup with a 8-4 overall record as they've faced eight teams ranked in the top 20 nationally as they've lost four of those matchups against top 20 teams so far this year. The Hoosiers are led by sophomore Sophia Sollie who has a team-leading 19 goals through 12 goals thus far for Indiana.

The Red Flash have yet to win a contest against the Hoosiers in the seven total meetings since Saint Francis started as a program in 2017. In their last meeting Emese Szucs led Saint Francis with three goals while Taylor Halbauer and Addison Williams also added a goal back in 2021.

SCOUTING THE LANCERS
The Red Flash will face off against a team that they haven't seen much of in program history in California Baptist. The Lancers come into the weekend with a 6-9 overall record and have lost two in a row against two top 20 teams being San Jose State and UC Davis. Cal Baptis is led by Maddie Schwegler who has 10 goals on the season and notched a hat trick in the last matchup against UC Davis.

Saint Francis had only faced Cal Baptist twice before in series history with Halbauer and Williams notching one goal apiece during the 2020 season.

SCOUTING THE TIGERS
Saint Francis will faceoff against Occidental for the first time since 2018 this upcoming weekend. The Tigers come into the weekend with a 0-1 record as they lost last weekend to Fresno Pacific before they take part in the Indiana Invite.  

The Red Flash are 3-0 in series history against Occidental with their last win coming in 2018 and Saint Francis has averaged over nine goals per game against the Tigers.

SCOUTING THE SEAHAWKS
The Red Flash are familiar with Wagner as they've just faced them two weeks ago and have faced them regularly in previous seasons. Wagner is winners of six in a row as they come in riding high after their latest victory against Brown.

The last matchup didn't end up in favor of the Red Flash as Halbauer and Williams led Saint Francis with two goals each as they haven't defeated Wagner yet in program history.
