RPI - 1, Farmingdale State - 0
Troy, N.Y. - At the final day of the Engineers Cup, host school RPI scored less that four minutes into the game as they dealt the Farmingdale State women's soccer team a 1-0 loss this afternoon in Troy, N.Y. The Rams now stand at 0-1-1 on the year, while RPI improved to 1-1.
Only 3:42 into the contest, RPI senior defender Bethany Hanson (Fullerton, CA) tallied an unassisted goal for the eventual game-winning score. The Engineers out shot the Rams 8-3 and held a 1-0 corner kick advantage in the first half.
Farmingdale State attempted three shots (two on goal) over the first 18:57 of the second half but were unable to convert. RPI held FSC without a shot the remainder of the game as they held on for 1-0 victory.
Senior goalkeeper Tori Riopelle (Ashburn, VA) recorded four saves for the Engineers, while sophomore Daniella Ford (Elmont, N.Y.) had seven saves in the loss for the Rams.
