Lady Bonnies Roll Over Minutemen

Congratulations to the Women's Soccer team who earned the programs first post season victory with a 2-0 decision last night against UMASS in the Kingston, RI. The Brown and White were lead by Anna Cunningham and Tori Burchett who both tallied a goal in the contest. Fittingly enough both Anna and Tori were honored by the A-10 Conference Wednesday night. Cunningham earned a spot on the Conference's First Team while Burchett was selected as Honorable Mention All Conference. Nicole Markert earned her 6th shutout of the year with the 2-0 win. With Nicole in between the pipes this year the team boasts an impressive 11-5 record.

The ladies will take the pitch tonight against Dayton, kick-off is slated for 7:30. The game is sure to be a battle as the Flyers will be seeking revenge. Just twelve days ago the Bonnies handed Dayton their first regular season loss in over two years. Although beating a nationally ranked team twice in two week span is certainly a tall task, the team remains optimistic. Junior Dakota Carroll says "the team is feeling good and confident" and added with excitement that Bonnies never say die! The team may be in uncharted waters but with a passion to win and the confidence to succeed anything is possible. Go Bonnies!
