The #8 ranked Newberry College women's field hockey team (14-3, 10-3) hosts Converse Saturday at 11:00 a.m. at Setzler Field.

The Wolves are tied with Limestone for first place in the South Atlantic Conference heading into the regular season finale.

If both teams win Saturday and end up in a tie, the Wolves will earn the number one seed and host the SAC Postseason Tournament semifinals and finals at Setzler Field Friday, November 9 and Sunday, November 11.

A win Saturday would break the school record for most wins in a season and tie the mark for most conference victories in a season set by last year's team (14-4, 11-3).

Head coach Hannah Dave won her 80^th game as Newberry coach back in a 4-0 win over Belmont Abbey last Saturday.

She has transformed a program that won just 13 games in its first four seasons to an 81-55 mark in her eight years.

The Wolves defeated Converse 3-1 in Spartanburg just eight days ago with Tamsin Bangert, Payton and Parker Keeler scoring goals.

The Wolves have won six of seven and eight of their last 10 games.

Bangert enters Saturday's game just one point short of her 100^th at Newberry.  She has 37 goals, 25 assists and 99 points in her four-year career including nine goals and nine assists for 27 points this year.
Emma Westbrook leads the Wolves with 13 goals, two assists and 28 points and has 35 goals in 34 career starts with seven assists for 77 points in her three seasons.

Newberry started its program in 2013, going 0-15 in the first season, but under Dave has put together five consecutive full seasons of double-digit wins, posting a combined mark of 67-31 in the last six seasons for a 68%.
