Staten Island, NY – The Wagner women's soccer team welcomes the Robert Morris University Colonials to Hameline Field tomorrow afternoon.  Friday's contest against Robert Morris had originally been scheduled for October 2nd, but was moved to Friday due to inclement weather and unplayable field conditions.
 
Scouting the Seahawks
The Seahawks (2-9-1) enter Friday looking for their second conference victory of the season after defeating LIU Brooklyn, 2-1, last Friday. Junior midfielder Megan Fritz (Cape Coral, FL/ Mariner) got things started for the Green & White with a header off a corner kick from junior midfielder Amber Coca's (Riverview, FL/Bloomingdale) in the 52nd minute. For Fritz, it marks her team-leading fifth goal of the season. 
 
Ten minutes later, senior midfielder Johanna Konrad (Volkach, Germany/LSH) ripped the eventual game winner from the 28-yard line, her first goal of the season.
 
Despite allowing a Blackbird goal ten seconds later, the Seahawks continued to put forth a solid defense effort and the goaltending from freshman Katie Viscardi (Hazlet, NJ/Mater Dei Prep) secured the victory. Viscardi played the entire 90 minutes and finished the match with four saves.
 
Scouting the Colonials
Robert Morris (5-8-0, 1-1-0 NEC) enter's Friday match looking to bounce back from a 1-0 defeat to Bryant, which halted the Colonials'  three-game win streak. For much of the game, Robert Morris dominated the tempo, but the Bulldogs were able to escape Moon Township, PA with an overtime winner from Alison Guilmette in the 98th minute.
 
All-Time Series Between Wagner vs. Robert Morris 
This will be the 21st meeting between the two squads, as they have met every year since 1994 as both teams stand at 10-10-1. Wagner enters Friday's contest with the upper hand, coming out victorious in the last two matches by the score of 1-0. 
 
Coming Up:
Wagner continues conference play as they travel to Teaneck, NJ on Sunday, October 18 as they will square off against the Fairleigh Dickinson University Knights.
