Leading Off
Entering the final week of non-conference competition, the Mavericks remain undefeated at 6-0-2 as they head to Fort Collins, Colorado to take on Colorado State this Friday at 8 p.m. (CT)/7 p.m. (MT).

Quick Kicks
• Splitting the last week on the road and at home did not slow down the Mavericks at all as they shutout UC Santa Barbara 1-0 on Thursday and returned to Caniglia Field on Sunday to best the MVC's top team Northern Iowa 2-1.
• The goal allowed to UNI was the team's first point given up since August 22 at Southern Utah. It snapped a streak of four straight shutouts for Omaha, thus tying the team for the longest shutout streak in the program's Division I history.
• Omaha's four consecutive wins tie the team with the 2020 squad for the longest win streak in the program's Division I history. Furthermore, the Mavericks' unbeaten streak of eight straight matches is not only their longest such streak in the Division I era, but the team's longest since going 10 straight matches without a loss in 2009.
• Lauren Schmidt scored the lone goal at UCSB last week, giving her two on the season on just two shots on goal.
• Mia Reedtz Rehde Olesen and Maja Baun combined for a season-high seven saves against the Gauchos. One of the top goalkeeper duos in the country, Mia and Maja own a .912 save % and .375 GAA, both of which rank 14th in the NCAA as of Monday.
• Regan Zimmers made it back-to-back Summit League Defensive Peak Performer of the Week awards for Omaha as she picked up the honor after playing all 180 minutes in the two victories. She also played a key role offensively against the Panthers, scoring Omaha's first goal in the 76th minute off of a Grace Crockett free kick, before setting up Alyssa Kellar for the game-winner in the 88th. The sixth-year defender now has a new career high in goals, as well as in points with five.
• Crockett's assist was also notable as it was the 14th of her career, tying her with Andrea Dave for the Division I program record.
• After beginning the year with four-straight weeks ranked seventh in the United Soccer Coaches West Region rankings, the Mavericks moved up a spot to sixth overall after their 2-0 performance last week.
