BALTIMORE – Loyola University Maryland women's soccer makes its first Patriot League tournament appearance since 2015, with the fourth-seeded Greyhounds hosting No. 5 Lafayette at 7 p.m. Tuesday night. The winner advances to Friday's semifinal round at Navy.

This is the second home playoff game for Loyola since joining the Patriot League. The Greyhounds advanced 4-3 on PK's following a 0-0 draw vs. Colgate in the 2015 Patriot League quarterfinals.

Last Time Out

• Paige Sim made seven saves, including one off a penalty kick in the 60th minute, as Loyola clinched a home playoff game with a 0-0 draw at conference-leading Navy on Friday.
• Navy (15-2-2, 6-1-2) had a 25-2 advantage in shots, including 12-0 after halftime, but was unable to get anything past Sim.
• Loyola's playoff berth was secured during the game following losses by Lehigh and Bucknell.
• Navy, which was shutout for just the third time in 2019, saw a four-game winning streak come to an end.
• Loyola improved to 1-1-3 in its five Patriot League road games this season, allowing just one goal across 512 minutes of game action.
