SU field hockey finishes road trip with loss to Cal
Syracuse field hockey finished its three-game swing through California yesterday with a 3-1 loss to Cal in Berkeley, Calif.
The Golden Bears thoroughly dominated the game, not allowing an SU goal until Ashley Fry scored with 1:33 remaining in the match. It was Fry’s second goal in two days.
Cal also outshot SU, 16-7. The loss dropped Syracuse to 1-2.
The Orange won its first game of the year on Sunday at Stanford, 3-2, in overtime. Senior Paige Sullivan scored the winning goal off a free hit pass from Michelle Sola. Junior Meg Ryan had SU’s first goal against the Cardinal.
Syracuse plays next on Friday against Kent State at 3 p.m. It is the Orange’s home opener.
Women’s soccer
The Orange women’s soccer team continued its scoring struggles, losing 1-0 to Harvard yesterday at SU Soccer Stadium. It was the second consecutive match Syracuse lost by that score.
Harvard scored with less than two minutes left in the first half when Megan Hyatt headed a cross past Syracuse goalie Emily Kowalczyk. The Crimson took eight shots, twice as many shots as SU. Kowalczyk had three saves Sunday.
Syracuse failed to score in three of its four matches. It plays on Friday against Arizona State in Albuquerque.
