VESTAL, N.Y. - Binghamton (5-2) puts its unbeaten home record (3-0) on the line when it faces Northeast Conference member Fairleigh Dickinson (1-3-3) at 1 p.m. Sunday at the Bearcats Sports Complex. Before the game, the Bearcats will honor their six graduating seniors: Abby Wick, Lauren Spinnato, Ryan Reilly, Sam O'Malley, Sydney Corda and Barbara Badeer.  

The Bearcats are coming off a 1-0 home win over Wagner on Thursday. Junior forward Essie Bonney netted the lone goal just 5:02 into the second half and BU used 14 second-half shots and substantial possession advantage to post the team's fourth shutout win of the fall. Bonney's goal was her fourth of the season, tying her with freshman midfielder Olivia McKnight for the team and America East lead. 

The Knights are coming off a 2-1 road loss at Hofstra on Thursday night. The team is winless in its last six games, though it has earned ties against Lehigh, Rider and William & Mary during that stretch. FDU's lone victory was a 6-1 triumph over Alabama State in its season opener in Texas. The team returns a pair of first team all-conference players (Stasi Torchia and Samantha Roff) and was picked to finish third (of 11) in the Northeast Conference Preseason Poll. Five of the Knights' top-seven point scorers from last season are back, including junior forward Viktorija Miseljic, who led the team with 14 points.

The FDU roster features eight Canadians and a total of 17 (of 25) international players from seven different countries.

Binghamton leads the all-time series 7-2 but FDU won the most recent encounter four years ago, 1-0, in New Jersey.
