All-Time Against Franklin Pierce

Last Time Out

• Southern Connecticut's offensive burst was led by junior duo Karley Welles and Jessica Maier, and freshmen duo Ellie Craft and Janelle Ward.

Notes

• The Owls' four goals scored against Molloy were the most goals scored in a game since Sept. 20, 2017 against Saint Thomas Aquinas, when they also scored four in a win.
• Janelle Ward, a goalkeeper turned field player just a few weeks ago, became the first Southern player to have a goal and an assist in the same game since Karley Welles did so on Sept. 22, 2018 against Southern New Hampshire. 
• Ward became the first Southern player to record two assists in a game since Chloe Knight on Sept. 20, 2017 against Saint Thomas Aquinas.
• Ward became the first Southern player to record two assists and a goal in a game since Sarah Cebry on Oct. 13, 2012 in a win against Saint Anselm.
• Welles leads the team in goals this season with three, while Ward leads the team in assists with two on the season. 
• Ward and Ellie Craft scored their second goals of the season and their collegiate careers. 
• Brianna Craft is approaching the NCAA Division II career saves record. With five saves today, she needs just six saves to break the national record.
• This was the most goals (4) and assists (4) registered in a single-game as a team this season.

Owls In The NE10

• Brianna Craft is first in the conference in saves with 129 on the season, 10 more saves than New Haven's Natalie Shaker, who has 119.
