LAST TIME OUT

The Fighting Hawks are coming off two tough matchups last weekend against South Dakota and South Dakota State. 

In a 1-1 decision, UND tallied this fifth draw of the season on Thursday against South Dakota. Sophomore Kaylie Fowler gave the Hawks an early lead with a goal in the 4th minute. She was assisted by Irene Jirasevijinda and Avery Toms.

Following on Sunday afternoon, the South Dakota State Jackrabbits blanked  3-0 on in a physical home matchup.

THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME

The Hawks boast a 4-2-0 record at home, dominating opponents at Bronson with 20 goals on 140 shot attempts in seven games. Conversely, North Dakota has held its opponents to just eight goals and 91 shots. Averaging 20 shots per game, the Hawks hold their opponents’ average of 13.

HELPING HAND

The Hawks have been dishing out helpers with just about every goal this season. With 29 assists on those 26 tallies, the Fighting Hawks have only scored five unassisted goals this season.

 

Their 29 assists are the most of any Summit League team and ranks 50th nationally. The 29 tallies is now the fifth-most in a season and only the second time in the Division 1 era (35 -2018)
