Panthers host Rockhurst and William Jewell at home
The Panthers host a pair of Great Lakes Valley Conference foes in Rockhurst and William Jewell in this weekend's homestand. Drury is 10-2-1 and 7-1-1 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference, which is the second-best mark in the league behind Maryville. The Rockhurst Hawks are currently 6-5-3 and have a record of 4-4-2 in conference play heading into their game against the Panthers. William Jewell currently has a record of 1-11-1 and a conference record of 1-8-1.
 
Drury enters Friday's contest fresh off a victory against rival Southwest Baptist, which stretched the Panthers all-time record against the Bearcats to 11-1-1. The victory was in large part thanks to a two-goal performance from Kourtney Tucker. The win marked the Panthers tenth of the season, which is the highest total win tally in the GLVC.
 
Rockhurst comes into Friday's contest off a loss against Illinois Springfield at home. The Hawks have an away record of 1-1-2 thus far on the season, compared to Drury's home record of 5-0. Rockhurst has outscored their opponents 17-12 on the season and carry a goals per game average of 1.21 heading into Friday's match.
 
William Jewell will take on Southwest Baptist in Bolivar on Friday before making the trip down to Springfield on Sunday. The Cardinals are coming off of a 2-2 tie with Quincy at home. William Jewell looks to beat Drury for the first time since 2019, when they defeated the Panthers 2-0 on the road at Harrison Stadium.
