Stockton, Calif. - The Pacific Field Hockey team will head to UC Davis on Friday to take on the NorPac West rival Aggies in the regular season finale for both teams. Each team will enter with identical 4-12 (2-3 NorPac) records.

The game, between teams tied in the conference standings, will have seeding implications for the NorPac conference tournament, which starts November 7th in Lynchburg, Va. Stanford, who has clinched the division title, will travel to California Thursday in the other game with NorPac implications.

The Tigers will look to rebound quickly from a 3-0 loss to No. 11 Stanford on Monday night. The Pacific defense and sophomore goalkeeper Maggie Corder were able to hold the Cardinal to one goal in the first half, but the Tigers had multiple scoring squandered or stopped by Stanford goalkeeper Dulcie Davies throughout the night.

These two teams last met on October 18th at Maxwell Family Field in Berkeley, Calif. Pacific doubled up the Aggies, 4-2, with Emily Tregoning scoring a pair of goals in the second half to clinch the victory for the Orange and Black.
