No Belisle?
One thing that may work against the Crimson, however, is the possible absence of junior Amy Belisle.
Belisle, who was sidelined by a stress fracture against Boston College a week ago, had to leave the Princeton game early and is questionable for today's contest.
The Crimson sorely missed the veteran sweeper against the Eagles and the Tigers and will need Belisle to stop the Huskies' powerful attack to pull out a win.
Game for Pride
The contest does not mean much in terms of records or titles or berths in the NCAA tournament. It has more to do with pride than anything else.
"You need to play well at home," Caples said. "We need to reestablish our home field advantage."
Could that advantage possibly be something as simple as grass today?
Yup.
