SCOUTING THE DOLPHINS:

• The defending champions boast the conference's most deadly offense, which averages 16.69 goals per game. They also allow the fewest goals against per game, at 5.68.
• Fazio is an extraordinary talent; her 61 points sits tied for fifth in the NE10, while her 90 draw controls leads the conference. Additionally, Monica Sanna has won 75 draw controls, fourth in the NE10.
• Six different Dolphins have scored 23 or more goals this season so far.

O'BRIEN APPROACHES TURNOVER RECORD:

• Sophomore Brianna O'Brien is one of just three players in program history to cause 30 turnovers in a season after Jessica Fontana and Allison Roy did so last season.
• Roy's 36 last season was the program record; O'Brien needs five more to break the record.
• Roy set the record in last season's game against the Dolphins.
