GAME OVERVIEW
• After a pair of convincing victories in which they registered seven total goals, Millersville enters Tuesday's match-up coming off their worse loss of the season. The Marauders fell 5-1 at California (Pa.) Saturday, registering just seven shots-on-goal compared to the Vulcans' 13.
• California scored four unanswered goals in the first half and it wasn't until the 83rd when Raiyu Ayonto found Nathan Delgado who scored his third goal of the season that Millersville would get on the board.
• The Marauders would concede a fifth goal late en route to their dominating victory.
ABOUT THE SERIES

• In the 2015 meeting, the Raiders downed Millersville 2-1 at home.
THE LAST MEETING: SHIPPENSBURG 2, MILLERSVILLE 1 (Oct. 13, 2015)
• Millersville wasted no time getting on the board as Jaime Vazquez sent a header into the back of the net in the first minute of the game.
• Shippensburg would respond in the 12th minute when James Connor got behind the Marauder defense and evened the score 1-1. The two sides traded chances but remained deadlocked at the break.
• The score would remain 1-1 at the end of regulation as the teams headed to overtime. Less than three minutes into the extra time, Jeff Ballard dribbled through the Marauder defense and put the ball in the back of the net to give Shippensburg a 2-1 victory.
