Big first half propels RIT past Bard, 3-1

ANNANDALE-ON-HUDSON, N.Y. – The Bard College women's soccer team fell to Rochester Institute of Technology, 3-1, on Saturday afternoon in a Liberty League game.

The Tigers (10-2-2, 4-0-1 Liberty League) were in the "Also Receiving Votes" portion of the national coaches' poll this week, after spending most of the season between No. 15-18. And although the Raptors ended up outshooting RIT, 16-11, the Tigers produced two shots early that made all the difference.
 
Maxine Culhane (Scotia, NY) found a loose ball in the box and fired it to the near side to give the Tigers a 1-0 lead in the seventh minute. And Elizabeth May (Pittsford, NY) made it 2-0 in the 15th minute after a ball was mishandled at the top of the box.

The Raptors (5-7-1, 1-5-0 LL) had three quality chances to score in the first half, but all three went just wide. First Abbey Labrecque in the eighth minute off a corner from Dylan McDonald, the Gina Lewis in the 18th minute and Avalon Qian in the 21st minute.
 
Haley Cromwell (Cave Creek, AZ) extended the visitors lead in the 40th minute, after receiving a pass to the wing from Lauren Chester (Rochester, NY) and getting the ball over the hands of Bard keeper Shane Crowley.
 
Down 3-0, Bard came out pressing in the second half and produced three good chances, but could not cash in until the 70th minute, when Isabel Keddy-Hector scored on a penalty kick after a foul in the box.

It doesn't get any easier on Saturday. Sixth-ranked William Smith College, which hasn't given up a goal in nine straight games, visits Annandale at 2. Follow that game via Live Stats or Live Video right here.
