In their opening week of play, the club's first match under new head coach Gabe Margolis did not go as planned, as the preseason No. 4 came up short in their comeback bid against the State University of New York Cortland Red Dragons. The Judges, however, were able to bounce back on Sunday, as rising phenom midfielder Joshua Handler ’19 led the squad to what would prove to be Margolis’ first victory as a head coach for the team.
