GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.  – The Golden Eagles conclude a season long four-game road trip on Wednesday at UM-Dearborn before coming back to CU Soccer Field to host Indiana Tech for two more WHAC matches this week. Cornerstone has a favorable conference schedule to end the year, as five of the six remaining WHAC games are against teams that sit sixth or lower in the conference standings. CU comes into the week at 3-5-1, 1-4-0 WHAC as both games will have live video and stats available HERE.
 
Last Week Recap
Cornerstone went 1-1 last week in their two games, defeating Rochester 6-0, with their most goals since the 2016 as Julie Gouilliart and Madison Radcliffe each scored two. The week then ended with a 2-0 loss at (25) UNOH, as they were outshot 22-6 in the match. 
 
Four Goals First
Senior transfer Julie Gouilliart did not score in her first season as a Golden Eagle, but she becomes the first CU player to hit four goals this season, which ties the most for any single player since 2019. Gouilliart is one of seven CU players to score this season as she is tied for the team lead with fellow senior Kylie Adams for points as Adams has three goals and three assists for nine points. 
 
Goalie Carousel
Head Coach Randy Strawser and the Golden Eagles have continued to split time between keepers Hope Steenwyk and Samantha Sebright over the last few games as they each play a half. So far this season, Steenwyk has made 32 saves in nine games for a .711 save percentage, while Sebright has made 16 saves in five games for a .727 save percentage. 
 
Active Wins List
Head Coach Randy Strawser has 219 career wins to his name over 22 seasons, which put him 14^th in the NAIA in the active coaches win list. At Cornerstone, he holds the second most wins of any coach on campus, behind men's basketball coach Kim Elders. 
 
History vs. This Week's Opponents
Cornerstone has had a very short history against their first opponent this week, playing UM-Dearborn just three times as their program is relatively new. CU is 3-0-0 all-time and did not play the Wolverines in 2020 as the UMD opted out of the year due to COVID-19. The Golden Eagles history against Indiana Tech is much richer, as CU is 20-11-2 all-time. The Warriors have improved over the last 10 years, as they have defeated CU five times in the last 10 games. From 2003-09, Cornerstone dominated IIT, going 13-0-0 and allowing a total of just two goals. 
 
Scouting UM-Dearborn
The Wolverines are looking to find their footing after not having a season in 2020 under third year Head Coach Danielle Toney as the team has gone 1-5-1, 0-4-1 WHAC so far this year. UMD has played just seven contests and scored only four goals, while giving up 14 this season. A multitude of players have played a multitude of different positions for UM-Dearborn as they look to find a combination to get their first conference win of 2021. 
 
Scouting Indiana Tech
The Warriors sit at 6-6-0 overall, already with their most wins since the 2018 season as they currently sit seventh in the WHAC standings with a 2-3 conference record. Indiana Tech has been relatively even with all of their opponents this year, scoring 21 goals while allowing 23. Offensively there has been a lot of different goal scoring threats as Lily Rothert, Bailey Elliott, Molly Ames, and AnnaBella Kowalcyzk have combined for 13 of the teams 21 goals this year. In net, the Warriors are very young with a sophomore and freshman sharing time at keeper, as Michaela Bitle has made 54 saves for a .771 save percentage and Karminna Gaytan has made 28 saves for a .800 save percentage.
