BRYANT WOMEN'S SOCCER FALLS TO FAIRFIELD 1-0 IN SEASON
OPENER
Box Score
SMITHFIELD, R.I. – In a tightly contested game with
limited scoring opportunities, the Bryant University women's soccer
team opened its 2010 season with a 1-0 loss to Fairfield at a rainy
Bulldog Stadium Sunday afternoon.
Both teams fought hard to control the ball and open up the
field, but the slippery playing conditions made it difficult for
either team to generate a consistent attack.
The Stags registered the only goal of the match in the
59th minute when junior Jasmin Corniel (Yonkers,
N.Y.) chased down a long pass from forward Casey
Frobey (Sandy Hook, Conn.) and tucked it past the dive of
Bulldog keeper Lauren Viverito
(Dayton Park, N.J).
The second half featured a stronger scoring threat by the
Bulldogs, who recorded a total of five shots in the game, but they
were unable to break the Fairfield defense. Viverito recorded five
saves for the Bulldogs.
The Bulldogs return to action on Friday, August 27 as they host
Northeastern University at 4:00 pm.
