Saint Louis hits the road for two matches to close out the regular season. The Billikens take on Davidson in Davidson, N.C., in an Atlantic 10 Conference matchup on Friday, Oct. 31, at 6 p.m. (CT). SLU then heads to Charlotte to face Queens on Saturday in a noon (CT) non-conference matchup.

The Billikens are still alive to qualify for the Atlantic 10 Conference Field Hockey Championship. It would be the program's first A-10 tourney appearance.

ABOUT THE BILLIKENS

Saint Louis enters Sunday's game 5-8 overall and 1-4 in league play. SLU is at five wins on the season for just the fourth time in the last 20 years. The Billikens' conference win came against Richmond, the program's first-ever win against the Spiders and SLU's first A-10 road win since 2007. That win will be critical in the tie-breaking process should SLU, Davidson and La Salle all finish at 2-4 in the league.

Olivia Smith and Sierra Larson lead the Billikens with 11 points (5G, 1A) apiece. Abby Vidas (3G), Shaya Dry (3G) and Ignacia Manriquez (2G) have all scored multiple times for the Bills this year as well.

Abby Schalow is a three-time A-10 Defensive Player of the Week. She has a 1.75 goals against average. Her .790 save percentage is 12th in NCAA Division I.

ABOUT DAVIDSON

Davidson enters Friday's match 8-8 overall, its most wins since 2015. The Wildcats have scored 39 goals this season, second in the A-10.

Sib Naaktgeboren leads the Wildcats in scoring with 36 points (15 goals and six assists). Four other Wildcats enter the weekend with double-digit points. Celie Constantine and Eva van der Kooi have 11 points apiece, and Matilda Collins and Lourdes Wolf have 10 each.

NEW COACHING STAFF

The Billikens are led by interim head coach Laura Hurff. She guided Rhodes College to a 14-6 record last season as interim head coach. An accomplished player in her own right, she was a four-year starter at Syracuse and helped the Orange win the NCAA Championship in 2015.

Assisting Hurff is interim assistant coach Teresa Schmidt, a St. Louis native who played at Bellarmine. Graduate assistant Bodhi Littlefield was a four-year starter at Ohio.

50TH ANNIVERSARY SEASON

This season marks the 50th anniversary of Billiken Field Hockey at Saint Louis University. The program began in 1975 under the direction of SLU professor and former Dutch national team player, Dr. Will van Beaumont. 

UP NEXT

The field for the Atlantic 10 Conference Field Hockey Championship will be announced at the conclusion of Friday's games. 

The top four teams in the A-10 make the postseason tourney, which will be hosted by the University of Richmond at Crenshaw Field on Thursday, Nov. 6 and Saturday, Nov. 8.
