It’s October 5, 2019. Here’s a recap of what’s been going on lately in Saint Anselm College sports.
Women’s Soccer
A pair of overtimes couldn’t decide a winner in the Battle of the Saints as Saint Anselm and Saint Michael’s played to a 1-1 draw on Wednesday.
Saint Anselm’s goal came from senior Caly Farina (Southbury, Conn.), who chipped a shot from outside the penalty area in the 44th minute.
That marked her third goal of the year and her 18th career goal, putting her in the top-10 all-time list among Saint Anselm players.
Junior goalkeeper Payton Wildrick (Dartmouth, Mass.) stopped five shots, also putting her in the top-10 all time with 154 career saves.
Saint Anselm (4-1-4, 1-1-3 NE-10) take on Assumption today at 4 p.m.
