It’s that time of year again! We’re back on the pitch and two weeks into our season off to a strong start at 2-1 against three good teams. Our first weekend included two games in upstate, NY where we stayed overnight at a local hotel. We played Union and RPI, two teams from a tough conference and finished 1-1 for the weekend. Union, a top 30 team in all of division three women’s soccer, snuck past us in a 1-0 win. Fortunately, we bounced back on Sunday to beat RPI 3-1. Ariel Chao , a first year from California, was awarded with her first career goal…and second….and third! In other words, a HATRICK!!!
The following week we drove to the Northshore to play Endicott College. It was a hard fought battle that concluded in a double overtime win, massive amounts of pizza, and a bumpy bus ride. Lena Cardoso, a first year forward/outside midfielder scored the first goal of the game, while Ariel Chao scored her fourth goal in three games for the game winner.
Up next: The Wellesley College Invitational: September 11th-September 12th. Game 1 vs. UMASS Boston.
