ND is unranked
Record 11-7-2 ACC 4-4-2
Record vs tournament teams 3-7-2 wins at St. Louis x2 Michigan. Ties with Louisville and Duke. The ties were probably their best results.
RPI 34
Matchup earlier this year
We won 2-1. ND is an aggressive pressing team and had the best of the first 35 minutes. Our depth and fitness took from that point forward. Riley Tanner with a very clever cut just inside the box drew a penalty kick. Anna Patten took the PK and with a stutter step faked the GK and totally crushed it. Zullo scored a nice goal off an assist by Griffiths in the second half.
ND only got three shots off in the last 52 minutes of the match. Two in the last 5 minutes of the match when they pushed everybody into the attack except the keeper. It was an odd goal. The shot was from the right center just inside the 18. It somehow sliced through about 8 players and found the net. Mikayla was shielded and never saw the shot.
What to expect
They have played here already this season and have run the gauntlet in the ACC. They won’t be intimidated and have seen. They are a good team and will press hard. IF they get a goal early they will become even tougher. They do not have real primary threat but have have four players with at least 4 goals
We have an advantage in speed, depth, and fitness. If form holds we should control the last 15 of the first half and the second half.
