What to Watch:

On Saturday, women’s (2–1–0) and men’s (3–0–0) soccer will face the Bowdoin Bears in conference matchups. Women’s soccer has proven dominant against Bowdoin in recent years, beating them in the NESCAC quarterfinals in 2016 and 2018. Forward Fanny Lodge ’24 is one to watch this weekend — the sophomore has two goals in three matches this season. On the men’s side, the Panthers finished their last season of play in 2019 as NESCAC finalists, while the Bears went 6–4–5. Though much of the 2019 squad has graduated from the Panthers, this matchup will surely excite. 

 

Elsewhere, top-ranked Middlebury field hockey (3–0) is also slated to do well in their duel against the Bears. Middlebury is undefeated against Bowdoin in the regular season since 2016, and has shut them out of the NESCAC tournament on multiple occasions within the past half decade.

 

High levels of play are sure to be seen across the golf, tennis and cross country invitationals this weekend. Two-time cross country All-American Cassie Kearney ’22 is one to keep an eye on as she races this weekend, as well as Zander Kessler ’22.5 on the men’s team.
