With her tally, Heidorn took over the team lead in points (5) and is second on the squad in shot attempts (13). Defensively, sophomore Kristin Haseley has emerged as IUPUI's No. 1 goalkeeper with a 1.54 goals against average and .786 save percentage.

Valpo (2-3) is keyed by fifth-year senior Casey Pedersen's two goals from her midfield position and junior Catherine Terrell has two assists in five games. In goal, Kristen Manski has played the bulk of the Crusaders' minutes, notching a 1.37 GAA and .778 save percentage.

IUPUI is 3-9-1 all-time against Valpo and has dropped six straight in the series.
