2025 Season: Alice Pifferi paced the Stags offense with 10 assists in 2025, becoming the first Fairfield field hockey player to record 10 assists in two seasons. She posted an assist in seven different games, highlighted by her three assists against Hofstra and two assists in the Villanova contest. Her 20 assists rank 7^th all-time at Fairfield. She also registered two goals in 2025, the last of which was a game-winner against Wagner in the regular-season finale. She also scored a goal against Villanova, giving her four points in the contest. Pifferi started all 22 games during the year after starting all 20 of her appearances in 2024.

2024 Season: Pifferi became just the sixth Fairfield student-athlete to reach double figures in the assist column for a single season, dishing off 10 in 2024. She was one assist off the school’s single season record set four times. Pifferi recorded an assist in five straight games, beginning with a pair in the Maine game. She extended the streak with an assist against Wagner, two against Mercyhurst, as well as one against LIU and Merrimack. She added a three-game run later in the year with an assist in consecutive games against Saint Francis, Villanova, and Stonehill. Pifferi also netted three goals, hitting the twine against Holy Cross, LIU, and Wagner in the NEC Championship game. She posted the team’s only penalty stroke in 2024, beating the keeper in the NEC Championship game.

2023 Season: Pifferi worked her way into six games and was an effective addition on the defensive side of the pitch. Her ability to contribute both as a defender and midfielder made her a valuable asset to the Stags success. She made non-conference appearances against Hofstra, Bryant, and LaSalle in addition to conference nods versus Stonehill, Sacred Heart, and Merrimack.
