Rivalries: New England sports fans are all too familiar with grudge matches. The Celtics despise the Los Angeles Lakers. The Bruins have their own hatred for the Montreal Canadiens. The Patriots can't stand Rex Ryan and his New York Jets, and of course, there is the rivalry between the Red Sox and the New York Yankees?
The women's soccer squad split its matches last weekend, falling 1-0 to Case Western Reserve University in Ohio on Sunday due to a deflected strike with only two minutes to go.
After scoring just five minutes into the second half against the University of Rochester last Saturday, men's soccer forward Lee Russo '13 seemed to have put the Judges ahead for good in the team's first University Athletic Association contest of the year. Even though the junior striker had seemingly written a nice ending to the game, his team's opponents had other ideas.
Cold nights. Colored trees. Shorter days. While each is rightly a depiction that fall is coming, they all also signal the arrival of something else: the start of the National Hockey League season. On the back of a thrilling ride to their first Stanley Cup triumph in 39 years, fans of the Boston Bruins will be optimistic entering this season.
Despite pulling ahead early in the second half, the men's soccer team dropped a tough double-overtime 2-1 decision to Babson College last Saturday. After a scoreless first half, midfielder Joe Eisenbies '13 broke the deadlock with a thunderous header 7 minutes past the interval.
Though creating chances in a game like soccer is essential to winning, it pales in statistical importance to scoring goals. This reality proved costly for the women's soccer team last week.
