#7 Women's Soccer Holds Off New Haven On the Road, 2-1

West Haven, Conn. – Two goals in the first half was enough for the seventh ranked Adelphi University women's soccer team to upend New Haven, 2-1 on the road this afternoon during Northeast-10 Conference action.

After nearly 30 minutes of action went by to open the contest, the Panthers (4-0/2-0 NE-10) struck for two quick goals that were separated by a minute. Adding her third goal of the season, Morgan Santoro put the Brown and Gold ahead to start, striking a shot into the lower left side of the net after a feed from Laura Gomez.

Gomez followed up in the 32nd minute with a tap shot past the keeper to give Adelphi a 2-0 lead. Taylor Sipos picked up the assist on the play with a cross from the right flank.

The Panthers went into the halftime break with a 13-3 advantage in shots while New Haven (3-1-1/0-1-1 NE-10) produced two corners kicks while yielding just one. All three of the Chargers' shots came on-target to force Anne Marie Ulliac to make three saves. Meanwhile, Deandra Nash made seven stops for the host.

Following a lengthy weather delay that kept both teams in the locker room at halftime, the second half was able to get underway. Despite creating seven shots in the second period, the Brown and Gold were unable to find a third goal. However, the Chargers were able to take advantage of one of their four shots during the 76th minute.

With a corner kick was produced following a blocked shot from Rachel Dempsey, Sierra Stein was able to find the head of Carlie Schecht on the corner attempt. Schecht headed home the attempt to cut the Adelphi lead to 2-1. From there, the Panthers did not allow another shot in the final 14 minutes and held on for the NE-10 win.

Adelphi finished with a 20-7 shot margin while both teams created three corner kicks apiece. Nash added five saves in the final 45 minutes to finish with 12 for the game compared to Ulliac ending her evening with the three first half saves.

Looking ahead, the Panthers return to the field for competition on Saturday in Colchester, Vt. to face Saint Michael's. Game time is scheduled for 12:00 pm.

Notes:
- The Brown and Gold entered the week seventh in the NSCAA National Poll and atop of the East Region rankings.
- The men's soccer program upended the Chargers at New Haven yesterday 4-0.
