10/31/2019 10:16:00 PM

GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) --- The Green Bay women's soccer team will wrap up the 2019 season on the road this Friday in Indianapolis against IUPUI. If the Phoenix can hold the Jaguars scoreless in this matchup, they would finish the season tied for fourth best in program history with only 22 goals allowed on the season.
 
Game Information: Friday at IUPUI - 1:00 p.m. // Watch on ESPN+
 
Most Recently for the Phoenix: Green bay dropped its sixth Horizon League match over the weekend against Northern Kentucky. The final score was 5-1 in favor of the Norse. Four goals in the first half put the game out of reach for the Phoenix, whose lone goal scorer was Savanna Hayes. The team statistics showed it was a closer game than the score line indicated, with NKU owning a slight 15-14 advantage in total shots.
 
Scouting the Jaguars: IUPUI will enter the pairing with Green Bay with an 11-6-1 record and 5-3 in Horizon League play. The Jaguars picked up a big win in their last match against Wright State after dropping their previous match to undefeated and league-leading Milwaukee. The Jaguars technically sit at 3rd place in the Horizon League with Wright State but their head-to-head win puts them a little in front of the Raiders. IUPUI sits towards the top of most Horizon League offensive statistics and are third best in goals allowed, proving they are a well-rounded team. Valentine Pursey leads the entire conference in shots attempted with a staggering 59 on the season and Pursey finds herself in the top 10 in basically every offensive individual statistic. The Jaguars lead the overall series 2-1-1 and those two wins have come in the last two meetings.
