THIS WEEKEND
The Dartmouth women's rugby team will play Quinnipiac Saturday afternoon in the first road game at the varsity level in program history.

LAST TIME OUT
The Big Green kicked off the 2015 season with an impressive 77-5 win against visiting Ivy League foe Penn last Saturday at Brophy Field in Hanover. In all, 10 different Dartmouth players recorded tries in the win with Yejadai Dunn leading the way with three. Audrey Perez picked up two, while Kat Ramage connected on four conversions.

SCOUTING QUINNIPIAC
The Bobcats will play their 2015 home opener Saturday after a pair of road games to start the fall. QU kicked things off with a 41-10 win at the College of Notre Dame in Ohio on Sept. 1 before falling, 29-24, at Army West Point last Saturday. Freshman Emily Roskopf leads the 'Cats with five tries in the first two games.

AGAINST THE BOBCATS
These two teams were supposed to have played last season, but inclement weather cancelled the game and moved the first all-time meeting to this weekend.

FROM THE COACH
"We know Quinnipiac is a tough opponent with a high work rate. They have a few years of varsity experience under their belt, so we're ready for a great battle. We've focused this week and how to impose our style of play on the game, on both sides of the ball. We are excited to see how our strengths match up against theirs." – Head Coach Katie Dowty
