Mercer (3-5, 0-0 Big South) vs Dartmouth (5-3, 1-1 Ivy)Â
Five Star Stadium | Macon, Ga.

SERIES HISTORY
Monday will be the first ever meeting between Mercer and Dartmouth.
LAST TIME OUT
The Mercer women's lacrosse team lost 16-8 to No. 9 Clemson last Tuesday from Five Star Stadium in Macon, Georgia.
A slow start for the Bears forced them to play catch up the rest of the game as Clemson led 6-0 after the first quarter and used that cushion to hold the Bears off the rest of the game. Caroline Glus led Mercer offensively with three goals and two assists. Sofia D'Angelo was the only other Bear with multiple goals as she had two goals.Â
Ansley Walters had a good game in the midfield for the Bears, finishing with one goal, four caused turnovers and one ground ball. Mackenzie Ward made eight saves in goal for the Bears.
SCOUTING DARTMOUTH
Dartmouth enters Monday's game with a 5-3 overall record and 1-1 record in Ivy play. The Big Green are coming off a 13-10 loss at No. 4 Florida on Saturday. Dartmouth's other two losses are to No. 25 Penn and UMass.
Monday will be Dartmouth's fifth away game of the season. The Big Green are 3-1 on the road so far.
Dartmouth leads the Ivy League and ranks fifth in the county in goals per game at 16.4 golas per game. Defensively, the Big Green are allowing just 9.1 goals per game which is tied for second best in the Ivy League. Perhaps the biggest strength of Dartmouth is in the draw control. Dartmouth leads the country in draw controls per game (18.9) and draw control percentage (68.9%).
Freshman attacker Madeline Egan leads the Big Green offensively with 43 points (23G, 20A). Sophomore attacker Charlotte Meyers leads the team in goals with 23. No other player besides Egan and Meyers has more than eight goals for Dartmouth.
Freshman goalie Ruby Lucken has started five of the eight games in goal for Dartmouth. She owns a .414 save percentage and 10.3 goals against average.
