* The Leopards head to Beyer Small '76 Field on Saturday evening to take on perhaps their biggest Patriot League nemesis in Colgate. The last time Lafayette earned a win over the perennially strong Raiders program was a 3-2 home triumph in 2000. 

* Lafayette (5-4-2, 1-1-1) is coming off a solid performance against first place Navy on Wednesday when they earned a 1-1 tie against the first place Mids. Sophomore Riley Dowd scored in the 79th minute of the draw for her third goal of the season.

* Colgate (1-6-3, 0-1-2) played to a scoreless draw in their midweek match at Holy Cross. The Raiders only victory of the season was a 2-1 overtime victory at Vermont. Midfielders Emily Amano and Sage DiGiulio lead the team with two goals apiece and defender Ruby Diodati had a goal and three assists.

* Digiulio scored a goal against the Leopards in 2018 when the Raiders won 2-0 on Mike Bourger '44 Field at Oaks Stadium.
