Johns Hopkins is 9-4 and 1-3 in Big Ten play, having faced the conference's three ranked teams in the Blue Jays' first three Big Ten games before a 15-8 win over Michigan Saturday. Stony Brook will be the fifth ranked opponent Johns Hopkins has faced in a challenging 2017 slate.
The Blue Jays have six players with between 23 and 32 points on the season, led by 32 from Miranda Ibello and 28 from Maggie Schneidereith. Johns Hopkins has held 11 of 13 opponents to 10 goals or less.
