5 Things to Know: No. 5 West Chester Returns Home Thursday to Welcome No. 10 Millersville

WEST CHESTER, PA – A clash of nationally ranked opponents highlights Thursday's Division II slate of contests as No. 5 West Chester and No. 10 Millersville meet for the first of two encounters during the 2026 regular season. Game time at Vonnie Gros Field on Thursday is set for 4 p.m.
 
  1. Thursday's match will be a non-conference affair. The game between the two Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) rivals on Oct. 28 in Millersville will count in the league standings.
  2. Back, Anna Finn (Windsor, N.Y./Windsor), is tied for the national lead in scoring with six goals. Her 2.00 goals per game average leads all of Division II as well. She is the only defensive player listed in the Top 10.
  3. The majority of Finn's goals have come of penalty corners, and West Chester currently ranks sixth in the nation in that category, averaging 10.33 penalty corner opportunities per game.
  4. Freshman goalkeeper, Erin O'Brien (Marlton, N.J./Cherokee), ranks seventh in all of Division II with a .642 goals-against average. She picked up her first college shutout over the weekend and has surrendered just two goals in West Chester's first three games.
  5. West Chester leads the overall series 21-11 and brings a current four-game winning streak into Thursday's match. Millersville has not beaten West Chester since Oct. 11, 2023.
