SERIES HISTORY

- BC has a 3-0 record for the overall meetings between the two.
- In the 2017 season, the Midshipmen and the Eagles were matched up twice – the first was during regular season, but the second was for the National Semifinal in the NCAA Tournament.

LAST TIME VS. NAVY
- The Eagles edged the Midshipmen out, 16-15, in the National Semifinal in last year's NCAA Tournament.
- Both crews were unranked at the time.
- Navy went into the halftime break with a three-goal lead (9-6), only to be thwarted by BC's 10-goal second half effort.
-Then-junior Kaileen Hart scored the game-winning goal on a man-up opportunity for her second goal of the game.
- Kenzie Kent led the Eagles with five goals, while Sam Apuzzo and Hart each notched two. Emma Schurr and Dempsey Arsenault each added a goal, rounding out the current Eagles' scoring from the game.
- The Eagles reeled off five straight goals to open the second half to overcome the halftime deficit and reclaim the lead that they would carry to finish the game.

NEED TO KNOW
- Both teams are so far undefeated on the season, so one team will receive its first loss.
- Hart became the 25th member of BC's 100 Point Club after boosting the Eagles by 10 points in their 22-12 victory over Brown on Feb. 24. The senior now has 102 career points.
- Apuzzo set the new program record for most draw controls in an individual game with 11. This became her new career high.
- Arsenault posted or matched four of her own career highs: points (7), goals (5), assists (2) and draw controls (7).
- Hart, Apuzzo and senior Tess Chandler have slated at least a point in every game.
- The last time the Eagles opened the season 5-0 was in 2015, when the Eagles went on to win 10 straight.
