SU Girls Take Care Of Business @ Coyne Field

[Orangeyes]

Syracuse jumped out to a 2-0 lead within the games first five minutes. They would score again before the end of the half. However, the momentum swung in favor of UConn as they scored two unanswered goals to end the first half. I happened to be sitting in front of a complaining crew from Connecticut. Every play one of their players was somehow aggrieved.

The second half I located myself around like minded Orange fans.The rest of the game was well played & scoreless so Syracuse repeated as Big East Field Hockey Champions. TGD was giddy and Floyd Little was smiling from ear to ear (see photo 29 below).

Most Outstanding Player went to SU freshmen forward from Lancaster, PA, Lauren Brooks! She was everywhere folks.

A nice touch came after the trophy presentations and all tournament team announcement. In unison, the team thanked the many fans who showed up. BTW, the conditions were ideal for viewing, sunny and 60 degrees.

Well done girls and coach Ang Bradley, who got the Gatorade bath from the team ( photo 36 below).

Hopefully SU will get a first round game at home.
