Series History: Raiders and Pioneers

• The Raiders were No. 1 in the NFHCA Division II Coaches Poll for the entirety of the 2013 regular season while the Pioneers were the only D-II team to finish the regular season undefeated.

• The two teams are very familiar with each other in recent years as LIU Post was a member of the PSAC from 2008-2012 before moving to the Northeast-10 prior to this season

• The Raiders last played the Pioneers on Sept. 14, 2012, last season, when they took a 3-2 road victory in Brookville, N.Y. In that game, then-sophomore Tori Ricker sent home the game-winner with less than seven minutes left off an assist from Kauffman. Saytar and Bender also scored.

• SU has not lost to the Pioneers in the last decade, winning nine straight since the two teams began playing every year in 2005.

• While the Raiders have won every contest during that span, there have been several close games, including last year's 3-2 contest, a 2-1 final in 2010, a 3-2 overtime triumph in 2009, a 2-1 decision in the 2007 regular-season finale and a 3-2 final in 2006.

• In 2011, however, SU defeated Post by a 10-2 margin in two games (6-1 and 4-1 finals).

Shippensburg's History in the National Playoffs

• Shippensburg is making its 10th appearance in the NCAA playoffs, all under 15th-year head coach Bertie Landes. With the exception of the 2007 season, the Raiders have reached the national tournament every year since 2003 – a run of 10 appearances out of the past 11 seasons.

• In 2010, SU advanced to its first-ever NCAA Championship Game, where it fell 1-0 to UMass-Lowell. Last season, the Raiders fell in the NCAA Semifinals in a 3-2 thriller to the Golden Rams.

• SU's win on Friday snapped its three-game losing streak in the NCAA Tournament as its last victory had come during the 2010 tournament when it defeated Bloomsburg 1-0 in the semifinals.

• SU's lone national championship came in 1979 when it won the AIAW (Assocation for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women) Division II Field Hockey Tournament – the only team in school history to win a national championship in any sport.

Scouting the Raiders

• Offensively, SU is spearheaded by three double-digit goal-scorers – senior Lauren Taylor (a team-high 16 goals), senior Bre White (14) and Jett (11) – as well as senior Taylor Bender with nine.

• White leads the team with 11 assists and 39 points while Jett has caged five game-winning goals. Defensively, freshman Taylor Fisher leads the team with seven defensive saves while Neely sports a 1.16 goals-against avg.

• Eight Raiders earned All-PSAC recognition this season, including White and senior Katie Shoop earning First Team honors. Taylor, Neely, Jett, Kauffman, Saytar and senior Brittany Jett also earned All-PSAC laurels.
