The Series: Clarkson is 9-2-1 all-time against Bard, having won six straight against the Raptors and outscoring them 7-2 in the last two seasons. Versus Vassar, the Knights are just 3-18-2, but the team is 1-3 under coach Zac Shaw, including a win at Vassar in 2022.

Key Stats for Clarkson (3-6-2, 0-3-1 Liberty League): The Knights have the exact record (and results) that they did against conference foes in 2022 when the team ended the year 4-0-1 to make the conference tournament, something the Green and Gold hope to repeat in 2024. Clarkson will have to find a spark on offense, as the team has gone the last 294 minutes without a goal. Brooke Butler was the last player to find the back of the net for the Knights, doing so against Skidmore.

Key Stats for Bard (3-8-1, 0-5-0 Liberty League): The Raptors last picked up a win in the conference in 2017 when they defeated Ithaca College. It has been a tough go for Bard this season in conference, as the Raptors have been outscored 36-1 in five league games, allowing at least six goals in each. Waleska Brito leads the team with 13 points (6-1-13) and has the lone goal for Bard in league play. Carina Cooke has also added in nine points (3-3-9).

Key Stats for Vassar (7-2-3, 2-1-1 Liberty League): The Brewers boast the highest-scoring offense in the conference, certainly bolstered by a 10-0 win over Bard, but nevertheless a dynamic one. Alice Crowley leads the conference in goals (11) and points (24) and is helped out on offense by Madison Bouggess (4-0-8) and Riley McGrath (3-2-8). J.D. Reigrut and Laura Shea have seen the majority of time in the net for Vassar, both with impressive numbers. Shea has a 0.50 goals against average and .895 save percentage and is coming off a 0-0 shutout against William Smith.
