The Panthers enter the weekend 1-1 after splitting a pair of games between Western Illinois and Iowa State. UNI defeated Western Illinois, behind Jane Masteller's second career hat trick. The midfielder scored all three of her goals in the second half, propelling the Panthers to a 4-0 win over WIU. UNI closed out the weekend losing a 1-0 decision to Iowa State in Ames while mustering only one shot against the Cyclone defense. This weekend will be the first meeting between the Cowgirls and the Panthers. On Sunday, the Cowgirls will square off with the tournament-host Creighton University. The Bluejays (1-1) started the season with a 2-1 win over Alabama-Birmingham behind a pair of goals from Krystle Campa.

The Bluejays won the only previous meeting with the Cowgirls last season, claiming a 1-0 victory in Stillwater.
