Upcoming Action
Sunday, October 3
UMBC at New Hampshire, 12 p.m. -- Live Stats
New Hampshire (4-5-3, 0-1-0 America East) looks for its first win in
league play as it welcomes UMBC (2-8-1, 1-1-0 America East) to Durham, N.H.
New Hampshire comes into the match after tying at Brown last Wednesday.
The Wildcats earned a draw, 2-2, against the Bears. Carole LeBlanc and Chelsea
Kuss scored for the Wildcats in that match. The only America East match for the
Wildcats in 2010 was a 2-0 loss to Boston University last weekend.
UMBC is coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Terriers last Thursday.
The Retrievers lost the match, 1-0, despite a fantastic performance by freshman
keeper Lauren Kadet, who made eight saves in the match. The Retrievers also
were able to get two shots past the Boston U. keeper, but both shots found the
crossbar instead of the back of the net.
Stony Brook at Boston U., 1 p.m. -- Live Stats | Live Video | Live Audio
Stony Brook (2-7-2, 1-0-1 America East) heads to Boston University
(7-5-0, 2-0-0 America East) for a battle between two of the three unbeaten
squads in America East play.
Both of these teams are coming off victories against league
foes on Thursday afternoon. Stony Brook spoiled the conference home opener for
Albany, 2-0. Boston U. took down UMBC, 1-0, on the road in Baltimore.
Both teams are currently riding unbeaten streaks into this match. Stony
Brook is 2-0-1 in its last three matches. The Seawolves have scored seven goals
during that span while allowing only two. Boston University has won its last
four matches, all of which came by shutout.
Binghamton at Vermont, 1 p.m. -- Live Video
Binghamton (3-8-0, 1-1-0 America East) squares off against Vermont
(1-10-0, 0-2-0 America East) in a match between two teams looking to get back
on track in America East play.
The Bearcats found themselves on the wrong side of a 1-0 score on the
road against Hartford on Thursday. The Bearcats held Hartford scoreless until
the 70th minute, but were unable to find the back of the net themselves in what
was a defensive battle.
The Catamounts actually had a 1-0 advantage over Maine Thursday
afternoon. However, Vermont could not maintain that lead, dropping a 2-1
decision to the Black Bears in Orono, Maine. The Catamounts are still looking
for their first conference victory of 2010.
Albany at Hartford, 2 p.m. -- Live Stats | Live Video
Hartford (4-6-2,
1-0-1 America East) puts its unbeaten conference mark on the line as it hosts
Albany (0-1-0, 5-6-0 America East) in West Hartford, Conn.
The Hawks
came out on top of Binghamton, 1-0, on Thursday night. The win was due in large
part to the play of a pair of juniors. Forward Breeanna Robinson scored the
lone goal of the match in the 70th minute. In net, keeper Lauren Brodeur made
three saves en route to her league-leading fourth shutout of the season.
Albany is
coming off a loss on Thursday afternoon at the hands of Stony Brook. The Great
Danes were shutout in the match, 2-0. The Great Danes could not score despite
putting nine shots on goal. To get past the Hawks, Albany will need to score against
Brodeur, something it has not done in the last two meetings between these
teams.
