Syracuse Blows Out Louisville, Sweeps Two Game Series

Syracuse scored nine of the first 10 goals and cruised for a convincing 19-7 victory over Louisville on Sunday. The third ranked Orange beat the #15 Cardinals for the second time in three games. Syracuse won 19-5 Friday afternoon. With the win, Syracuse improved to 11-1 (7-1) on the season.
Next up is a two games series with #5 Boston College in the Dome that will wrap up the regular season. The first game is Thursday at 6:00 p.m. and will be broadcast on ESPNU. The second is Saturday at noon.
After racing out to a 9-1 lead, Louisville tried to get back in it with a three goal run at the end of the first half to trim the halftime margin to 11-5. But Syracuse responded with three goals in the first four minutes of the second half to put the game away.
The Syracuse defense was stellar for the second straight game, forcing 17 Louisville turnovers. Asa Goldstock allowed just seven goals and had six saves. Syracuse also had the advantage in ground balls (16-10) and draw controls (16-11).
Meaghan Tyrrell was held without a goal for the first time all season, but she racked up five assists to lead the team. Megan Carney tied for the team high with four goals, including a spectacular behind the back shot (watch below). Meaghan's sister Emma Tyrrell tied Carney with four goals. Freshman Emma Ward added three goals of her own.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting. EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans. After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years. Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports. Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
