As a team, West Alabama is averaging 2.0 goals per game while holding opponents to 1.8. The Tigers have been efficient in the attack, scoring on 20 percent of their shots and putting nearly half of their attempts on frame. Defensively, goalkeeper Charlie Walker has tallied 14 saves through five starts.

Spring Hill (0-3-1, 0-1-1 GSC) enters the weekend still searching for its first victory of the season. The Badgers average just 0.75 goals per game while conceding 2.50. Alessandro Merlo, Jack Ambrose, and Lucciano Injoque each have scored once to pace the offense.
