• Hank has not allowed a goal in her last three games, and owns a personal scoreless streak of 282:44 dating back to the Elon match on Sep. 10. Hank has not allowed a goal in eight straight Big South regular season games, a scoreless stretch of 687:22.
• The Panthers have never lost a Big South home opener under head coach Marty Beall. HPU is 7-0-1 in Beall's previous eight seasons. The lone tie came vs Gardner-Webb in 2014. This is the first time that Radford is the opponent in the home opener.
• High Point's blanking of Liberty was its fifth straight Big South regular season clean sheet. The Panthers have not allowed a regular season goal against a Big South opponent in 475:53, and have yielded just three goals in the last 11 league matches.
• HPU has scored six goals in its first 11 games, its lowest total through 11 contests since Beall's first season in 2009 (1 goal in 11 games). That year, HPU ended up winning the Big South tournament and advancing to the NCAA Tournament.
