TUESDAY
Dartmouth plays just its third home game of the season in a mid-week non-conference matchup against Albany out of the America East Conference.

VICTORY!

The Big Green notched their first win of the season with a 1-0 double OT victory on the road at UMass.
Senior Justin Donawa scored the game-winning goal in the 107th minute on a breakaway off an assist from sophomore Kota Sakurai.
Dartmouth was in control for much of the match, outshooting UMass 15-5 and 6-3 on goal.
The Big Green also came away with 10 corner kicks compared to two for the Minutemen.

SCOUTING ALBANY

The Great Danes come into Tuesday's match with a 3-5-0 record and are 0-1-0 in the America East.
Albany is currently on a two game losing streak and has lost four out of its last five matches. Their last win was a 2-1 victory over Brown on Sept. 9.
Their other two wins were against Harvard and Marist, making them 2-0 against Ivy League opponents this season.
All of Albany's games have been decided by one goal.
The Great Danes are second in the America East with 12 goals on the season
Nico Solabarrieta leads Albany with three goals, while Carlos Clark has three. Five other players each have one goal.

AGAINST THE GREAT DANES

Dartmouth and Albany have only met twice before with the Big Green taking both matches.
The Big Green first defeated them 2-1 at home in 2013. Dartmouth then won 3-0 on the road in 2015.

IMPACT PLAYER

Since making his return from injury against UNH, senior Justin Donawa already leads the team with 10 shots and three on goal, and is second with one goal.
Donawa has only played in three games and made his first start in their last game at UMass.

GOALKEEPING

Junior goalie Henry Stusnick picked up his second shutout of the season at UMass.
He also did not allow a goal in the teams' home-opener in a scoreless draw against UNH where he set a career high with five saves.
Stusnick has recorded 12 saves this season and has a .800 save percentage which ranks second in the Ivy League.
