EMMITSBURG, Md. (October 15, 2024) – Looking to secure positive results facing the top of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) standings, Mount St. Mary's welcomes Canisius for a midweek contest in Emmitsburg.  
 
MOUNT UPDATE
 
Hoping to register a point versus Fairfield, the Mountaineers developed a solid defensive game plan to try to forge a 0-0 result. One ball found its way in, however, and the Stags were able to convert in the 1-0 final. Adelaide Paredes registered six saves during the match.
 
As a result of the defensive-focused effort, there were no shots on offense from the Mount's perspective. The last time the program ended a match without a shot recorded was 2003 at Navy.
 
Sydoney Clarke remains the team's top scorer and on the national leaderboard, along with the team, for shot accuracy. The Mount is 44^th in the country and Clarke as an individual stands 73^rd.
 
SCOUTING THE GRIFFS
 
Canisius ranks among the best in the nation at keeping teams off the scoreboard, ranking fifth in goals against average at 0.38 per game. Nine of the 13 matches played by the Golden Griffins are shutouts, and Jordan Spencer has registered 30 saves along the way. On offense, Madeline Weltin and Alicia Zamora account for half the goals, with Weltin tallying eight and Zamora five.  
 
THE ALL-TIME SERIES
 
Of the four matches against Canisius, the Mount has one victory and a draw. They defeated the Griffs in 1996 by a 4-1 score and tied 0-0 in a MAAC game in 2022.
