Saint Mary's will play two matches this week, including their home opener on Thursday.
MORAGA, Calif. — Saint Mary's (0-2) will play two matches this week, including their home opener on Thursday. The Gaels return to Moraga after a two-game trek to North Dakota last week.
The Gaels play host to Green Bay on Thursday at 3:30 p.m. before squaring up against Oregon State on the road on Sunday at 2:30 p.m. Both matches will be streamed with the former on the WCC Network and the latter on the Pac-12 Network. Links to live stats can also be found on the team's schedule page.
Saint Mary's will look to capitalize on their scoring opportunities this week after strong showings from their offense over the weekend. Despite taking 40 shots through their first two games, SMC has scored only once, courtesy of senior Jaylen Crim.
ABOUT GREEN BAY
The Phoenix are off to a 2-0 start this year and have posted both wins on the road. Green Bay defeated Valparaiso in their opener before defeating Chicago State 2-0 on Sunday. The team has yet to cede a goal this year.
Junior Caitlin Hawley has scored in both games this year for the Phoenix and leads the team with seven shots. McKayla Kertscher is second on the team in points after picking up assists on both goals during GB's win over Chicago State.
After their match against Saint Mary's, Green Bay will head to Davis to play the Aggies. The Gaels and Phoenix have met only once before which resulted in a 3-0 win for SMC in Green Bay in 2015.
Tickets for the match can be purchased by clicking here or at the stadium entrance up to one hour prior to kickoff.
ABOUT OREGON STATE
The Beavers are 1-0 early in the year after defeating Portland State 3-0 in their season opener. Before hosting Saint Mary's, OSU will welcome Villanova to Paul Lorenz Field two days prior.
Oregon State is looking to bounce back from a rough season last year where they went 2-17 and picked up only one win in conference play.
In their lone match this season, OSU dominated Portland State as they outshot the Vikings 24-0 and didn't allow a single corner kick. The Beavers tallied all three goals in the first 23 minutes of the match by three different scorers.
Saint Mary's is 4-0 all-time against Oregon State with the most recent match coming in 2014. The Gaels beat OSU in Corvallis 4-2 in that match.
