The Flyers (7-5-3) will play their final two regular-season games on the road this weekend as they play at Richmond on Friday (Oct. 27) at 7 p.m. E.T. and A-10 Conference co-leader Charlotte on Sunday (Oct. 29) at 1 p.m. E.T. The UD women are currently in a tie for 4th place in the A-10 standings with Saint Louis, and sit just a game back of Charlotte and Rhode Island.

LAST TIME OUT
The Dayton Flyers (7-5-3) went 1-1 in last week's play, defeating George Washington on Friday night (Oct. 20) 1-0 on a game winning goal by sophomore Amanda Gallow in the 41st minute. Gallow rebounded a shot by Dara Elk that was too much for the Colonial goalkeeper.  It was Gallow's third goal of the year.

On Sunday the Flyers dropped a heartbreaker 1-0 to La Salle. The Dayton women went cold in the second half being out-shot 13-4 for the last 45 minutes of play.

SCOUTING RICHMOND
The Spiders enter this weekend with a 2-12-2 record overall and a 2-5-0 record in the A-10 (11th). Richmond split their decisions last weekend, falling to St. Bonaventure 2-0 on Friday while defeating Fordham 3-2 on Sunday on a game-winner by Kelsey Rdzanek in the 83rd minute. They are led in points on the year by Julia Bizer (6g, 0a) and in assists by Jen Ruhe (1g, 3a). The Flyers lead the all-time series 5-2-1, having tied last year's match 0-0 at Baujan Field.

SCOUTING CHARLOTTE
The 49ers enter this weekend tied for the top spot in the A-10 with a 6-1-0 conference record, while going 11-4-2 overall. Last Friday, Charlotte came back from a 2-0 deficit to top Fordham 3-2 with just six minutes left in the game. On Sunday, the 49ers rolled over St. Bonaventure 3-0 for their eighth win in their last 9 matches. The 49ers are led on the year by Nikki Labuda (8g, 4a) and Ohio native Rachel Mees (5g, 6a). This is only the second ever meeting between the two schools, with Charlotte coming out on top 1-0 in last year's match.

A-10 TOURNAMENT
