The Series: Clarkson has one win in 24 meetings against Ithaca, beating the Bombers back in 2017. The two teams met twice last season, including a game in the Liberty League Semifinals, where Ithaca came away with a victory in overtime.

Key Stats for Clarkson (6-2-2, 1-2-0 Liberty League): The Golden Knights, ranked 24th in the country in the latest United Soccer Coaches' poll, have given up four goals in their past two games, but that has pushed the season total up to just six for the first 10 games. Clarkson's starting back line of Emily Colby, Arin Bates, and Julia Tylar has played all but 41 of a possible 2700 combined minutes, with Bates having yet to be substituted. Junior goalkeeper Molly DiCaprio ranks second in the conference in saves per game (4.78), second in save percentage (.896), and third in goals against average (0.59).

Key Stats for Ithaca (6-2-1, 2-1-0 Liberty League): The Bombers have outscored opponents 25-4 this year, though much of that offense came in three lopsided victories. Ally Stanton is the team's top scorer with eight points on three goals and a pair of assists while Sarah Sinnott has six points on two goals and two assists. Julia Cascone, Carrie Davis, and Kaelyn Fernandez also have contributed five points. In goal, Grace Hickey has a 0.46 goals against average with 28 saves and an .875 save percentage.
