The Wolves are coming off a hard-fought match against Georgia State on Thursday night. Despite a 3-0 setback, West Georgia saw a standout performance from freshman goalkeeper Emily Sanabria, who shined in her first career start. Sanabria tallied 14 saves to keep the Panthers scoreless through the first 45 minutes of play. The Wolves' offense showed progress, with a season-high five different players putting shots on target, and they'll aim to turn those chances into goals against Mercer on Sunday.
