DOMINANT FIRST WIN

The Owls are coming off a resounding 4-0 victory over Detroit Mercy on Sunday, which was the first win of the year. FAU's offensive outburst resulted in several feats that had not been achieved from FAU in a while, including:

The four goals were the highest as a team since Nov. 8. 2019, the Conference USA Semifinals against Charlotte
It marked the first four-goal half since Aug. 25, 2019, when the Owls defeated Grand Canyon 7-1
Bri Austin and Sofia Voldby each scored a pair for FAU against Detroit Mercy. They mark the first Owls with a multi-goal game since 2021 graduate and current professional footballer Miracle Porter tallied a hat trick against Grand Canyon
Voldby's two scores were her first two collegiate goals
Austin's two marked her first multi-goal game as an Owl. Her last came when she was a member of Villanova's squad in 2018
Hailey Landrus tallied two assists, both on Austin's goals, for her first multi-assist game of her career
FAU's defense and midfield stifled the Detroit Mercy attack, holding the Titans to zero shots on the day. The Owls last allowed no shots in the 1-0 win over Ball State on Sept. 13, 2019
Blythe Braun picked up the shutout win in net for FAU in her first collegiate game
Hunter Koziara and Thelma Hermannsdottir each assisted on one of Voldby's goals

SERIES HISTORY

This is the 19th meeting all-time between FAU and Miami, with the Hurricanes holding a 10-8 lead in the series. In fall 2021, Miami took a 1-0 decision. The Owls last came out on top in the spring 2021 season with a 1-0 win.
