Senior Melissa Roth will be leading Dartmouth's offense. An All-American candidate, she tallied two goals against the Terriers in the last game, including the game-winner, and assisted on the third.
Roth is supported by freshman Annie Gibson. A potent force for the Big Green this season, she assisted on Roth's first goal against B.U. and has a pair of goals this year.
Anchoring the Big Green's defense is Kristen Luckenbill, Dartmouth's ace between the posts. Luckenbill ranks second in the Ivy League with a 0.56 goals against average, just behind Harvard's freshman netminder Cheryl Gunther.
Luckenbill has posted three clean sheets in her last four games. And she would have had four had B.U.'s Beth Weisman not scored in the final minutes of her last match.
"I played with her [Luckenbill] when we were younger, so I know she's a great keeper," Totman said. "She's got a very physical presence. This may sound like a cliche, but soccer really is a team game, and if we play our game, she won't be able to stop us."
But the Crimson is not going to go down easily--or at all.
Luckenbill might be able to stop some of the Crimson's less potent shots, but with the triple threat of co-captain Beth Zotter, freshman forward Joey Yenne, and Totman on offense, posting a shutout against the Crimson will be difficult.
