Green Bay and Robert Morris squared off for the first time last year at Aldo Santaga Stadium in Green Bay. The two teams played to a 1-1 draw, with Madeline Cruz assisting a Savanna Hayes goal for the Phoenix.

The Phoenix and Golden Grizzlies have played each other 11 times across their shared histories, with GB sitting at a 3-7-1 record. Oakland is on a three-game win streak against GB.

ABOUT THE COLONIALS
Chris Shaw enters his third season at the helm of Robert Morris, holding a record of 12-18-5 with the Colonials. Robert Morris has almost already matched their win total from a season ago (6) just seven games through the 2022 season.

Forwards Haleigh Finale and Gabriella Lecuona have started the season hot for Robert Morris, both tied for the team lead in goals (3) and points (8). Lecuona has hit those marks in just 154 minutes played.

ABOUT THE GOLDEN GRIZZLIES
Juan Pablo Favero will enter his sixth with the Golden Grizzlies. Favero led Oakland to a second-place finish and a 9-1-1 conference record a year ago.

The Golden Grizzlies were picked first by the Horizon League's head coaches in the league's preseason poll. Fifth-year Alexa Sabbagh leads the line for Oakland, leading the team with two goals scored and five points.

PAGELS PUNCHING IN
Zoey Pagels has made her presence known with the Phoenix in her first year of collegiate soccer. The 2022 WSCA First Team All-State member leads the team with two goals and six shots on goal. She is tied with McKayla Kertscher for most points with four.
 
RECORD SCRATCH
Goalkeeper Annie Mason has been stellar since coming to Green Bay last season. With the 3-0 shutout of Western Illinois on August 25, Mason tied Nastacia Behle (2012-15) and Brooke Wikgren (2004-07) for third all-time in GB history. Mason's next clean sheet would put her alone in third. Barb Singer holds the most career shutouts in GB history with 17.
 
NEW PHOENIX FACES
GB has 13 newcomers on the 2022 roster, including 12 freshmen and one junior. Katelyn Fishnick, Zoey Pagels, and Sierra Morgano, three of the freshmen, highlight the 2022 recruiting class. Fishnick was a WSCA First Team All-State member, Pagels was the WSCA Player of the Year in 2022, and Morgano became a U.S. Youth Soccer National Champion in 2022. Morgano is one of three players to play all 360 minutes, while Fishnick is tied with Audrey Cassata for the second-most shots on goal (2).
