Fairfield 2 Binghamton 0


The Fairfield Stags (2-0) women's soccer team shut out the Binghamton Bear Cats (0-1) at Lessing Field for the Stag's home opener. It was the first meeting between the two and Fairfield has record back to back shutouts. Check out the Stags website for a complete recap and boxscore.


The Least You Should Know:

- It is only the second time in program history that they shutout the first two opponents. The first one coming in the very first year.

- The Stags are now 5-0-1 in home openers under Coach Jim O' Brien.

- The two goals were scored by Nicole Cavallaro and Kasey Schulz. It was the first of the season for both.

- Kelly Boudreau assisted on the first goal (the first of her career) and Sarah Alesio dished out to Cavallaro in the second half.

- Stags only allowed 3 shots on goal. Throughout the first 2 games they have only allowed 4 shots.

The defense is really looking like a surprise for this team. Alyssa Decker had an amazing game and the Bear Cats were not able to get anything by her for most of the game. Carly Beyar also looks very good at the midfield as she showed off her athleticism and also played very well on defense.

Jasmin Corniel did take 3 shots and have one of those on goal, but she made some bad kicks and sat for most of the second half.

The game ball:

Goes to Kasey Schulz who mad an amazing shot falling down and hitting the top of the far post. Both of her shots were on goal and she really made matchup difficulties due to her speed.
