WLAX Preview: DU wraps up non-conference play against Quincy

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - Davenport University women's lacrosse is gearing up for its final non-conference game of the season following a pair of losses on the road.

The Panthers dropped to 5-4 overall (0-2 GLAIC) after dropping matchups against Concordia, St. Paul (18-15) and Northern Michigan (18-7). 

Maisy Latus leads the conference in saves at 97, combining for 20 total saves last weekend. Maddy Haynes remains in the top 10 in the GLIAC for goals (27) at No. 7 overall for an eighth-best 33 points. Blakely Malpass has the third-best shot-on-goal percentage (min. 10 shots attempted) at .915 for a 43-of-47 shot rate.

Ready to shake off the weekend struggles, the Panthers kick off four straight home games over the next two weeks in a faceoff against Quincy.

Quincy Matchup
2023 First Team All-GLVC honoree Danielle Robinson sits at No. 2 in the GLVC and No. 19 in NCAA Division II for goal total (46) with a fourth conference-best 3.54 goals per game, also tied for No. 12 in the country for free-position shot percentage (.688). 

Four other Hawks have also reached double digits in goal tally: Amelia Ham (24), Emily Leal (22), Patricia Chavira (17), and Anni Moran (16). Defensively, Kara Wilhelm leads the pack with 20 caused turnovers to go with 24 groundballs, with Kelly McClure tabbing 128 saves in goal for a .469 save percentage this season.

The Panthers lead the historical matchup 2-1 over the Hawks, Quincy recording their first victory in the all-time series with a 9-7 win in Illinois last year.

Selected to finish No. 6 in the conference, Quincy is two wins away from improving on last year's 6-11 overall record as they look to end a two-game losing streak with three games on tap this week.
