THE OPPONENTS 
WEST LIBERTY 
2026 Season 
West Liberty enters the week with a (2-6-1) overall record and a (2-5) mark in MEC play. The Hilltoppers earned victories over Wheeling and Shawnee State while battling Malone to a scoreless draw earlier this season. Most recently, West Liberty defeated Shawnee State 2-0 to secure its second conference win of the year. 

Quick Look at The Hilltoppers 
Despite their record, the Hilltoppers have shown improvement in recent weeks, winning two of their last three matches. Kylie Collins has been a key contributor offensively, scoring three goals this season, including both goals in a 2-0 victory over Wheeling. Defensively, goalkeeper Kaisa Vale has recorded 40 saves and two shutouts. West Liberty will look to build momentum Wednesday night. 

FAIRMONT STATE 
2026 Season 
Fairmont State enters the week unbeaten with a (7-0-2) overall record and a (5-0-2) mark in conference play. The Falcons have established themselves as one of the top teams in the Mountain East Conference, earning victories over West Liberty, Point Park, Wheeling, and West Virginia Wesleyan while recording draws against Frostburg State and West Virginia State. Most recently, Fairmont State played West Virginia State to a 1-1 tie at home. 

Quick Look at The Falcons 
Currently ranked among the top teams in NCAA Division II, Fairmont State has been dominant on both ends of the field. The Falcons scored over 20 goals through their first nine matches while allowing just seven. Players such as leading scorers Sam Yuen, Serenity Thomas and Dayra Dinarte have helped lead a balanced attack, while the defense has produced multiple shutouts throughout the season. Sunday's matchup will be one of Glenville State's toughest tests of the season. 

THE PIONEERS 
GLENVILLE STATE 
2026 Season 
The Pioneers enter the week with a (4-5) overall record and a (4-3) conference mark. After opening MEC play with four wins in five matches, Glenville State has dropped its last two contests against Frostburg State and Point Park. Despite the recent setbacks, the Pioneers remain in the hunt for a conference tournament position with several key MEC matchups remaining on the schedule. 

Quick Look at The Pioneers 
Glenville State has relied on strong defensive play throughout the season, led by goalkeeper Lucia Lopez and a back line that has helped keep the team competitive in conference play. Offensively, players such as Solares Solano, Valentina Quiroz, and Aitana Viejo have proved strong scoring options throughout the year. This week's schedule presents another significant challenge with important conference points on the line. The Pioneers will look to return with a win and regain momentum entering the second half of MEC play.
