Syracuse Women's Soccer Tops New Hampshire for Third Straight Victory

Goalkeeper Lysianne Proulx recorded her second consecutive shutout, and third in the last five games, as Syracuse women's soccer won 2-0 at New Hampshire for its third straight victory. With the win, the Orange improved to 4-1 on the season, its best start since the 2013 campaign. This was the first road game for Syracuse this year as well. 

Syracuse controlled most of the action from the get go, but struggled to find the back of the net until late in the second half. The Orange outshot New Hampshire 11-6 and had seven corner kicks to just one one for the Wildcats. 

It was not until the 71st minute that Syracuse broke the scoreless tie. Freshman Kylen Grant sidestepped a defender and beat New Hampshire goalkeeper Cat Sheppard off a shot from her left foot. The goal was the first of her collegiate career. Less than 10 minutes later, Syracuse added a second goal to put the game away. Natalie Weidenbach's corner kick was hit by Pauline Machtens and found the back of the net to give the Orange a two goal lead. It was Machtens second goal of the season. 

Syracuse would cruise from there for its third straight victory. The loss drops New Hampshire to 1-3-1 on the season. 

Next up for Syracuse is a matchup with Cornell. That game kicks off at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 9th at SU Soccer Stadium. The game will be broadcast on the ACC Network Xtra. It will be senior night for the Orange.

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.
