Live Stats/Live Video

The Series: Since the Raptors joined the Liberty League in 2012, Clarkson is unbeaten against Bard in six meetings. The Golden Knights have outscored Bard 110-32 overall, including a 21-0 shutout the last time the two met in Potsdam. On only one occasions have the Raptors been within single digits (17-10, 2013) of the Knights.

Key Stats for Clarkson (5-2, 0-1 Liberty League): Through seven games, seven different players have scored 13 points or more for the Golden Knights, creating a fairly diverse offensive attack. Jaid Baytos leads the way with 23 points on 18 goals and five assists, but after that, six players are within three points of one another. As usual, senior Taylor Collins is contributing across the board, ranking in the top three in goals (12), groundballs (13), draw controls (16) and caused turnovers (11). With 13 points this season, Collins has pushed her career scoring total to 96 points and she is now within just four tallies of becoming Clarkson's 15th member of the 100-point club.

Key Stats for Bard (2-1, 0-1 Liberty League): The Raptors had their most recent game cancelled by the snowstorm in the Mid-Atlantic, so they should be well-rested to take on the Knights. Dylan McDonald leads the team in scoring with 10 goals and five assists for 15 points, all of which came in the first two games of the season. Melissa Rosenthal does a little bit of everything for the Raptors with 13 points (7-6-13), 15 groundballs, 16 draws and 7 caused turnovers. Nicole Ellin leads the team with 17 draws and also ranks second with nine groundballs. Casey Witte (10-0-10) and Caleigh DeCaprio (4-4-8) also contribute to the offense.
