GAME AT A GLANCE
The IUP field hockey team (2-7, 1-1 PSAC) starts its home week Tuesday afternoon when they host the Seton Hill Griffins (0-7, 0-1 PSAC). Game time is scheduled for 4 p.m. at George P. Miller Stadium. Over the weekend the Crimson Hawks fell short to No. 7 Millersville in double overtime with a 2-1 final decision. Seton Hill opened conference play with a home loss to No. 8 Kutztown, 5-0. 

NOTES
>> The Crimson Hawks have won seven straight games with Seton Hill dating back to the 2014 season. IUP blanked the Griffins in two games last year (6-0, 3-0) while three other games during that span have gone to overtime. 
>>  IUP is tied for the Division II lead with seven defensive saves in nine games this season. Molloy (11 games) and American International (eight game) also have seven saves by defenders this year. 
>> Sophomore Taylor Flanagan had two of IUP's three defensive saves Saturday at Millersville and now is tied for the team-lead with three this year. 
>> Senior goalie Olivia Accardi was named IUP Athlete of the Week after going 1-1 with a shutout against Slippery Rock last week. She also took Millersville to double OT, going more than 80 minutes in the cage between goals.
>> Accardi is fifth in Division II with 9.44 saves per game and 14th in the country with a 78.0 save percentage. She has three games of 14-plus saves this season.
