Easton, Mass. - Reigning Northeast-10
Conference player of the week, Tricia Spada scored the game-winning
for the 25th ranked Bryant Bulldogs with under seven
minutes to play, thwarting a late Stonehill rally and lifting the
Bulldogs to a 2-1 victory on Skyhawk Field.
Bryant led for most of the contest after Diane Pascale scored in
the 26th minute with help from Sarah Donavan, the
current freshman of the week in the Conference. Stonehill freshman
Michele Norton (Abington, Mass.) had an answer of
her own, scoring her first career goal in the 76th
minute to knot the game at one.
Both goalkeepers logged all 90 minutes, with Bryant backstop
Jessica Naeles turning away two shots, while Skyhawk netminder Alex
Echardt (Marshfield, Mass.) stopped five shots.
The Skyhawks fall to 0-2 on the season and play their next three
contests on the road beginning with Saturday's tilt at LeMoyne.
