BOX SCORE
MANCHESTER, N.H. -Laurie Boland (Worcester, MA) scored
off a free kick with 1:19 remaining in regulation to lift Southern
New Hampshire University to a 2-1 Northeast-10 women's soccer

afternoon. The Penmen improve to 7-10-1 overall and 5-8 in
NE-10 play, while the Dolphins are now 8-8-1 and 4-8-1 in the

Boland's sixth goal of the season
(third game-winner) was set up late when Kate Ross
(Brunswick, ME) was fouled at the top of the box. On the
restart, Boland fired a ball around the Dolphin wall and found the
bottom left corner of the goal past diving Le Moyne keeper
Amanda Abbatiello (Liverpool, NY).
The Penmen took a 1-0 lead with
just over three minutes left before halftime. Ross took a
pass from Shawna Medina (Gloucester, MA) and put
it home for her second goal of the season. The guests would
tie the score 4:52 into the second half when Molly
Yaman (Homer, NY) scored off a feed from Christina
Harrison (Jamesville, NY).

(Natick, MA) made six saves en route to the win for Southern New
Hampshire, while Abbatiello made three stops. The Dolphins
held an 11-9 shot advantage on the afternoon.
