Skidmore Women's Defense
The last time someone scored a goal against the Thoroughbred's was September 7. Goalkeeper Gab Lawrence has not allowed a goal in over 768 minutes of play.
Lawrence is fourth in the nation in save percent and fifth in goals - against average, as Skidmore has allowed just two goals in 11 games.
The Thoroughbreds dominated with another shutout on Saturday, October 12, during a 3-0 win at Clarkson. The defense will have to do much of the same this weekend, as Skidmore goes on the road for back-to-back games, starting with No. 24 RIT today at 4 p.m. and No.4 William Smith, Saturday at 2 p.m.
The Thoroughbred's (4-0 Liberty League, 9-0-2 overall) Have posted 12 straight unbeaten games dating back to last year, the highest stretch in the program's history. The team is currently ranked 16th in the NSCAA/Continental Tire Division III National rankings.
Dakota Harvey
Saratoga Springs • Sophomore • No. 25
Last season, Dakota Harvey was sidelined after an injury. This year, he’s back with a vengeance and his numbers have helped put Blue Streaks Football back on the Empire Division and Section II Class AA map.
The 6-foot-1, 220-pound sophomore running back has nine touchdowns (eight rushing) to go along with 555 all-purpose yards, 490 of which have come on the ground.
Harvey has hit his stride in the Blue Streaks’ last two games. After 191 yards rushing and two scores against Bethlehem, he had 124 yards on the ground and two touchdowns against Shenendehowa in a win that help set up today’s showdown against Guilderland.
Saratoga Springs (4-1, 5-1) will need Harvey and his 9.8 yards per carry to secure the No. 2 seed and homefield advantage in the first round.
