About the Panthers:
The Panthers went 2-1-0 last week falling 1-0 at home to Slippery Rock on Tuesday afternoon, before upsetting No. 4 University of Charleston (W.V.), 2-1 in OT, on the road Friday evening and shutting out Saginaw Valley, 2-0, at home on Sunday. Joe Pissocra (Sr./Dublin, OH) scored the equalizing goal with 24 seconds remaining in regulation and assisted on the game-winning score in OT of Friday's upset over the Golden Eagles. Tyler Huerkamp (So./Loveland, OH) and Drew Edler (So./Hilliard, OH) scored their second and third goals of the season, respectively, in Sunday's shutout victory. Despite not recording a save, keeper Tyler Gleason (Sr./Grove City, OH) posted his GLIAC leading fourth shutout of the season on Sunday against the Cardinals.
About the Dragons:
The Dragons defense held Urbana to only four shots (one on goal) and used a pair of goals in each half en route to a 4-1 win over the Blue Knights at home last Friday. Tiffin defeated Seton Hill (Pa.) 3-1 on Monday, outshooting the Griffins 18-7 to improve to 7-5-0 on the year and even their road record at 3-3-0.
TU is 4-1-0 since falling at home to the Panthers, 1-0, earlier this season. Liam Fitzgerald (Sr./Hudson,OH) scored the eventual game-winner and his second goal of the season just over three minutes into the match.
About the Oilers:
The Oilers were not in action last week. Findlay faces Urbana at home on Tuesday, Oct. 12th and Ohio Valley on Friday, Oct. 15th before visiting ODU on Sunday.
The Panthers defeated the Oilers 3-2 earlier this year. After trailing 1-0 at the break, ODU erupted for three second half goals and withstood a late UF rally for the come-from-behind victory.
