Another senior, Jessica Wollmann, is second in the league with 1.38 goals per game and eight for the season. Both Wollmann and Casarez rank inside the top three in total points for the season.

LAST TIME OUT
Casarez's hat trick led the Highlanders to a 4-1 victory over USC Upstate on Saturday. It was a spectacular night for Casarez as her three goals set a career-high. It was the first hat trick from a Highlander since 2015, when Amanda Philip scored three goals against Southern Virginia. Perez had a hat trick in her own unique way with three assists. It was the third multi-assist performance of her career and she set a career-high with three.

ABOUT THE BLUE HOSE
Presbyterian enters with a 7-6 overall record and a 2-5 Big South record. The Blue Hose won five straight after dropping its season opener to Furman, but has since then lost five of its last seven. The two conference wins came against Campbell and Hampton. PC has outscored its opponents 26-21 and is averaging two goals per game.
