The Friars will host Hartford on Thursday, Aug. 29 at 7:00 p.m.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The Providence College women's soccer team is set to host Hartford on Thursday, Aug. 29 at 7:00 p.m. on Chapey Field at Anderson Stadium. Providence posted a 1-1 record through the first week of play after beating UConn (2-1) and falling to UMass (1-0).
Home Dominance... Providence will look to bounce back after a 1-0 loss on Chapey Field at Anderson Stadium in its last matchup against UMass. Dating back to last season the Friars are 8-2 over their last 10 games on home turf and Sunday marked their first loss since Sept. 27, 2018 against Xavier. Providence opened the season with a 2-1 win over UConn when Hannah McNulty (Warwick, R.I.) picked up right where she left off, after tallying 10 goals and four assists last season. She put the Friars in front in the 38th minute after finishing a cross off the foot of Kelsie Cummings (Millbury, Mass.) just outside the six-yard box. Cummings' assist marked the first of her career in a Friar uniform after playing in 19 games last season.
Providence took a 2-0 lead into the half after junior Christina Rodgers (Scotch Plains, N.J.) converted a penalty kick in the 43rd minute for her third career goal and first since her freshman campaign. The BIG EAST Preseason Goalkeeper of the Year, Shelby Hogan (Franklin, Mass.), prevented a late surge by the Huskies to hold on for the 2-1 victory.
Friars in 2018… The Friars finished with an 11-6-3 overall record and 4-3-2 mark in the BIG EAST Conference during the 2018 season. Providence finished tied for fourth in conference play and made a run to the BIG EAST Semifinal for the second-consecutive season. Since Sam Lopes was hired in 2014, the team has recorded a winning record in five-straight seasons.
A program record five Friars earned All-BIG EAST recognition at the conclusion of the last season. Katie Day was the lone Friar on the All-BIG EAST First Team. It marked the second-consecutive season she was listed on the First Team and second player in program history to accomplish that feat.
