She also assisted in preventing Rutgers-Newark from getting a single shot off during a 5-0 NJAC win. Migliori is part of TCNJ’s defense that currently leads the conference in team goals against average at 0.25.

• Division I: La Salle’s Melissa Sanger has not allowed a goal in the team’s 11 games. She now sits at sixth on the all-time list for longest shutout streak for a goalie in DI history.

• Division I: Oklahoma State continues to be perfect on the season. The Cowgirls are off to the best start in program history at 14-0. They have outscored their opposition 37-4. 

• Division II: After a week out of the NSCAA’s top 25, Edinboro jumped back in at No. 19. At 9-2-0 on the season overall, the Fighting Scots have established the best start in program history. Edinboro has won its last four matches.

• Division II: No. 10 Rollins has yet to allow a goal on the season and stands as the only team in Division II that is unscored upon. Senior goalkeeper Michelle Dillingham, credited with 10 shutouts, has been a major contributing factor for the Tars.

• Division III: William Smith, currently ranked second in the nation, tied the school record for consecutive shutouts to start a season with its nine clean sweeps of the year.
