SMITHFIELD, RI - Daisy Martinez scored in the 68th
minute to help lead second-ranked Bryant University to a 1-0 win
over visiting Assumption College in a Northeast-10 Conference
women's soccer game at a hot and humid Bulldog Stadium
Saturday. The win keeps Bryant undefeated after the first 16
games as the Bulldogs improve to 13-0-3 (8-0-2 NE-10) on the
season. Assumption drops to 3-9-1 overall (2-8 in
conference).
With temperatures in the mid eighties at kickoff, both teams
played to a scoreless tie in the first half, despite the Bulldogs
out-shooting the Greyhounds 5 to 0. In the second half, the
Bulldogs kept the pressure on the Greyhound defense and final broke
through as Martinez netted her first of the season. The goal
would hold up as the Bulldogs will embark on a three-game road trip
starting Tuesday at Saint Anselm.
