GAME NOTES
GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
The 2016 Highlanders' offense was led by a pair of seniors—Tayler Dragoo (4 goals, 1 assist) and Blanca Barrio (2 goals, 4 assists). Barrio graduated as the Highlanders' career leader in assists. Quinley Quezada (2 goals, 0 assists) and Hailey Maxwell (2 goals, 0 assists) are the team's top returning scorers.
SCORING DROUGHT
The Highlanders scored 18 goals in 19 matches last season. UC Riverside has averaged less than 1.00 goals per match just three times in its 15-year history—last season, 2010 (3 goals/18 matches), and 2009 (14 goals/19 matches).
DAZZLING DEBUT
Redshirt freshman goalkeeper Annie Bailey made her Highlanders debut last season in a 3-0 shutout victory at Akron on September 11 (box score/recap). The last member of the Highlanders to toss a shutout in their first start between the pipes was Sara Slaughter who blanked Pacific on October 9, 2012 (box score/recap).
The Highlanders had six matches last season go into overtime, and they were 0-2-4 in those matches. They were 0-4-0 in overtime matches the previous year, and last won an overtime contest on October 17, 2014 in a 3-2 victory over UC Santa Barbara (box score/recap). The program record for most overtime matches in a season is eight set in 2013
DOUBLE DIGITS
The Highlanders reached the 10-win plateau in 2015 for the first time since the 2006 season.

THE MAGIC NUMBER IS TWO
The Highlanders are 36-5-2 over the past five-plus seasons when scoring two or more goals in a match. Their last loss when scoring two or more goals was a 3-2, double overtime decision vs. CSU Bakersfield from September 25 of 2016 (box score/recap).
