Freshman Ava Wells has taken ownership of the goal, starting seven of the nine matches in 2026. Wells holds a 2.57 GAA and 31 saves to her name in her first-year campaign.

Supporting the keeper, defenders Nora Cullen and Gianna Gagliano have taken grasp of keeping the ball out of harm's way. The duo each own over 750 minutes on the pitch this season.

Pacific and LMU have had its fair share of battles over the years with the Tigers claiming a 4-1-1 in the last six matchups.
