The Bulls are balanced offensively, with 30 goals scored off the feet of 12 different players, led by Guerber who leads the team in goals (7) and points (19) and junior midfielder Laiken Kiser who has notched five goals. Thompson leads the Bulls between the pipes, compiling an 12-4-2 overall record. She ranks in the top three in the MAC and in the top 30 nationally in goals against average (.68) and shutouts (8) while ranking fourth in the league in save percentage (.813) across 18 contests.
