For Starters
  • The Saint Peter's University women's soccer team opens its 28th season on Friday night in Jersey City at Caven Point Field against Delaware State. Kick-off time is set for 7 p.m.
  • This is the first time since 2016 that the Peacocks will be opening their season at home. They will shoot for their first victory in a season opener since 2009, which was a 2-0 win against Wagner.
Meet the 2019 Peacocks
  • Head coach Melissa Sherwood enters her fourth year at the helm of the Saint Peter's women's soccer team.
  • For the second season in a row, the Peacocks have 13 letterwinners returning from the previous season. They will look to earn a MAAC Championship berth after narrowly doing so a year ago, when the 2018 squad finished with 10 league points, the most for the program in one season since 1998.
  • Junior goalkeeper, Victoria Scarratt, returns after finishing 2018 with the third-most saves in the MAAC with 95.
  • Sophomore Brooke Boutchie, a 2018 All-MAAC Rookie Team selection, returns as the Peacocks' top scorer from a year ago. She tallied two caps in 16 games as a freshman last year.
  • Kelly Aguilar, Victoria Babcock and Alyssa Conanan make up the trio of seniors that, alongside junior captains Nazae Craw and Isabel Fernandez, will comprise the leadership corps for the Peacocks this fall.
Fresh Faces
  • The women's soccer team welcomes six newcomers into the fold this year.
  • The Peacocks will welcome two transfer student-athletes to the program, including graduate transfer Noelle DeFede from Mount St. Mary's and sophomore Amber Whitley from Middle Tennessee State.
  • Four true freshmen will be joining the squad this season: Jazmin Brown (Toms River, NJ), Dominique Cummings (Brick, NJ), Madison Greenberg (Columbia, MD), and Haley Martin (Middletown, NJ).
Series History with Delaware State
  • Last season, the Peacocks fell to the Hornets 1-0 in overtime.
  • Saint Peter's is 10-4-1  against Delaware State all-time since the two schools began playing each other annually in 2002, excluding 2004 and 2012.
  • Over the past six encounters between the two teams, the record stands at 3-3 with all three victories for Saint Peter's coming at home.
Up Next
  • The Peacocks will remain at home as they prepare to take on Hampton University on Wednesday, Aug. 28 at 3 p.m.
