at UVM 11Oct2026

 We originally planned to play UVM at home on the day after sorority Bid Day - when new members are officially accepted, but we thought so many home games would make next fall’s game-planning very difficult since we usually alternate home and away locations with the other teams.

This is a busy time of the term, so we only had four subs. We had cloudy skies, 15C/60F, 25kph/15mph winds - on their big turf field where the ball almost seems to run without friction. We discussed using shorter passes on the ground to help maintain possession.

UVM looked intense, as usual, and got a free kick from midfield early on, before Nicole got a shot off that went over their crossbar and Sophie had a shot go wide. Then Neva had a shot saved and earned and took a corner kick. Meg took a free kick from midfield from a UVM handball before their shot from the left side of the field rocketed into the upper-right of our net.

Neva earned a free kick in midfield before UVM had a shot go high. Nicole earned a corner that was followed by a shot from either Sophie or Ellie that was saved. Then Nicole took a corner kick late in the first half.

We remarked during the break that we were finding each other well and were dropping the ball back to keep possession. We came out strong and connected many of our passes and created good chances. Suggestions included more communication, keep supporting each other, make passes on the ground, use give and go movement.

In the 47th minute, UVM had a shot go wide and a free kick from midfield go wide before Nicole earned a corner and Neva had a shot saved. UVM got two free kicks, and the latter found the back of our net.

Nele saved a UVM shot for a corner and then made two more saves for another corner; one of our players made a clearance for another UVM corner, and Nicole cleared a UVM shot in the 65th minute.

Neva had a shot go wide before Chloe’s perfectly placed free kick in their third. Nele made two more saves before another of their shots went wide. Then Molly took a free kick after a UVM handball in midfield, and Neva had a shot saved near the final whistle.

We played hard and never gave up. It’s always good to play good teams, and UVM is usually a very clean-playing team. We made many, many good passes had good chances and so can feel rewarded for putting in great effort!

Middlebury 10Oct20

At 9am we thought perhaps Middlebury would not have enough players to come down, but about a half hour later we got confirmation that they were coming! Whew! It was senior day!

Maddie’s mom and boyfriend, Chloe’s parents and pups, Nicole’s dad and pups, Carson’s mom and brother (I think), a huge group from Sigma Delta and many others were there cheering! We spoke about playing from our hearts and making good passes.

Middlebury pressed heavily and earned an early free kick in their third before Nele saved their first and only shot for the half. I think we all were surprised by how well they played.

Neva had a shot go high and Carson had one go wide before Lola earned a free kick from our third. Then Ellie had a shot go wide and we took a free kick from our third due to their handball. 

     

Neva had another shot go high before Molly’s free kick from our third and Ellie (maybe?) had a shot saved. Then Neva had a shot saved and Nicole had one go wide before Ellie’s shot hit the crossbar then over.

Liv earned free kick from midfield and Maddie had a shot saved before Liv’s shot wide just before the break. We had ten times as many shots as they had in the first half!

Carly led the comments with impassioned praise for the love all of our players showed each other during the first half - taking great care of each other. We connected more passes and held good spells of possession. It was suggested that we can pass back and not always go forward in order to maintain possession, and we switch sides more often. Our crosses were very effective, we should keep shooting and play for each other!

Early in the second half, Pine took a free kick from our third and Molly had a shot saved before Middlebury sent a shot wide and Nele saved a shot.

Emeline earned a free kick from our third before Pine had a shot saved. Then 

Carson earned a free kick from midfield taken by Lola and Nele made another save

when Middlebury took a free kick from midfield.

Middlebury got in behind our defense (offside?) for their goal in the 56th minute.

Hattie earned a free kick from their third and Pine’s shot went wide before Neva scored from Carson’s rebound off their crossbar in the 65th minute.

Nele saved Middlebury’s 6th shot before another went wide. Then Sage made a beautiful strike in the 71st minute for our game-winning goal.

Nicole had a shot go wide and Ellie had one go over their crossbar before Middlebury sent two shots wide and Carly took a free kick from midfield.

We were delighted to play a strong team in preparation for the game with UVM.

UNH 4Oct2026

We didn’t know what to expect with UNH since they are relatively new to our League. When we arrived at Sachem Field, they were already warming up. Their coaches said 80 players came to their first tryouts!

We had fans! Nicole’s mom and pups, Maddie’s mom, Neva’s dad -maybe others?

We spoke about making close/simple passes on the ground to maintain possession and trying a diagonal dribble to confuse a defender.

Nicole wasted no time in getting off a shot in the first minute that went over their crossbar before Kya blocked a UNH shot for their corner. Sage had a shot go high and Molly had a shot saved before Nicole had her shot saved for a corner taken by Molly - then another corner by Molly.

In the 10th minute, Liv earned a free kick in their third taken by Neva, whose shot went high. Three minutes later, Neva earned a PK that was taken by Nicole; her first shot hit the crossbar but she scored on the rebound.

Sage had a shot saved for Ellie’s corner; then Ellie earned a free kick from midfield. Chloe earned a free kick from midfield taken by Emeline before UNH took a free kick in our third and had two corner kicks.

UNH sent a slow-rolling shot from left into the lower-right corner of our net in the 32nd minute. Emeline took a free kick from our third before Molly had a shot saved and UNH took a free kick from midfield just before the break.

We had many thoughts about the first half: playing scared by their physicality (?), we’re still happy, could communicate more, they’re putting high pressure on us so passing back is good for keeping possession, calm down, wing players came back to help provide outlets, make closer/simpler passes. Believe!

Within seconds Nicole scored by herself before UNH sent a shot wide. Carson took a corner kick and earned a free kick in their third taken by Neva before UNH’s free kick from midfield followed by their corner.

UNH took another free kick in their third and one from midfield before Nicole earned a free kick in their third taken by Neva. UNH took a corner kick and had a shot go wide before Liv earned a free kick in their third taken by Sage. 

UNH took another corner kick and had a shot saved by Nele before Maddie had a shot saved and Neva had a shot go wide. Then Lola took a free kick from midfield and Kya earned free kick in midfield.

In the 79th minute, Nicole set up Neva for our third goal before Sage earned a free kick in midfield. In the last few minutes, Nicole earned a corner kick taken by Lola  and Chloe had a shot go high.

In the 2nd half we connected more and more passes, so the end result seemed extremely we’ll deserved, and we were happy not to succumb to the physical and sometimes verbal pressure we faced!

Springfield 3Oct202into

Springfield hosted us last fall, so it was their turn to come north. A perfect day with blue skies and summer-like temperatures, we were delighted to welcome back Avery Jones and Nicole’s mom and pups for Homecoming! The bonfire returned last night after last year’s draught made it impossible.

We spoke about keeping the ball moving, making good passes that maintain possession and making diagonal dribbles or passes.

Both teams were highly energetic, but we were more often first to ball and better able to connect passes. After Molly earned a free kick in their third in the 3rd minute, Nicole had her shot saved but was able to put the rebound into their net.

Nicole had a shot saved for a corner that was taken by Molly before Liv earned and took a corner and Neva earned a free kick in midfield. Carson’s shot bounced off the top netting in the 19th minute before Hattie had a shot saved. 

Springfield took a free kick from midfield and had a shot go wide before Ellie’s shot did the same and Carson had a shot saved. Then Springfield had another free kick from midfield and a shot wide, then a free kick in our third and a shot wide before halftime.

During the break, we complimented our stepping to the ball and our good shooting and suggested more passes, being quicker, cutting back, connect more to feet, keep the intensity, open up wide in the back and get the ball back if we lose it.

Ellie had a shot go wide in the first minute of the second half before Nicole earned a corner taken by Molly and Carson had a shot saved. Springfield took a free kick, but that shot went high; then another shot of theirs went wide.

Nicole earned a corner taken by Lola before Mia’s shot hit the upright. Neva earned a corner and Kya had a shot go high before Nicole blew by defenders on the right side of the field and took her shot at a very acute angle into then upper left corner of their net in the 67th minute.

After Carson earned a corner, a cross found Neva, whose shot went in but her goal was disallowed due to a foul in their box. Ellie took a corner before Carson took another corner; then Neva made a beautiful shot in the 72nd minute from 20+ meters for our third goal.

Springfield’s free kick in our third went wide before Carson’s shot went wide. Then Ellie earned a free kick in their third that was taken by Lola and Pine had a shot go wide. Springfield took s free kick in their third just before Carson set up Ellie’s goal in the 76th minute. 

Springfield got lucky in the last minute of the game when they sent in a high-arcing shot from the left side of the field into the upper right corner of our net. Credit them for not giving up!

at MIT 19Sep2026

 Our first game this fall after four days of tryouts with five new amazingly talented players: Ellie Curley ‘30, Nele Janek ‘29, Lola Kinsella ‘30, Carson Kochansky ‘30 and Sophie Pomfret ‘30! It was a beautiful day in Cambridge where I did graduate studies in chemical engineering - blue sky and 60+F/16+C.

Molly’s parents and grandparents from Syracuse, Nele’s father and brother from Germany, Maddie’s cousin and Sophie’s friend from Berkeley, who attends MIT, were there! Captains Nicole Bogdanos and Carly Fleming introduced an effective set of warm-up routines, enabling us to be well-prepared for the noon kick-off.

MIT suggested that we play 35-minute halves. They had us on their turf field and it was a bit windy, so I recommended that we focus on connecting ground passes and make diagonal runs and passes. The captains urged us to play with intensity.

MIT got a few free kicks before Nele showed her high quality in preventing one of their crosses into our box in the 14th minute. Then Carson got off a shot that was blocked; she took the ensuing corner kick. A few minutes later she set up Ellie for our goal in the 17th minute.

Nicole had a shot go wide just before Carson won a free kick for us from about 20m that Carly placed expertly into the upper left corner of their net for our second goal.

During the break, we applauded the good work and noticed everyone’s happiness on the pitch. We suggested playing to feet, quicker passes in midfield, timing our runs, launching the ball sooner, playing more quickly, communicating more, passing on the ground and playing more diagonally.

MIT hit a shot that bounced off our crossbar; the rebound enabled another MIT shot, Nele stopped it. Ellie won a corner kick taken by Carson, who hd a shot go wide before Molly had the same outcome with her shot. After an MIT corner, Nele saved another shot in the 50th minute.

After MIT took a free kick from midfield, Maddie blocked one of their shots for their  corner kick. Chloe did well to get forward for a shot that went wide, and Sage had a shot on target that was saved in the 56th minute. 

Molly earned a corner kick taken by Carson before she had another shot saved. Then Carson had a shot saved for another corner kick. Lola did well to get forward enough for a shot that went wide before Ellie had the same outcome in the 66th minute. Neva had a shot whoosh over their crossbar in the last minute.

UVM 12Oct2025

We always expect a big challenge from UVM. It was Senior Day, and Homecoming weekend, so we were delighted to see our graduated players Lizzy Strapp ‘25 and Kalyn Dawes ‘25 and Lizzy Hennessey ‘09 with her wife Tam and daughter Oakley ‘45 (?!) in addition to Nicole’s dad and Chloe’s parents - maybe others?

The weather was perfect - starting in the 60sF/15C and feeling warm from direct sunshine. We spoke about keeping the ball moving. 

Both teams showed high energy and intensity. Nicole got is started with an early shot blocked before Genevieve had a shot saved for a corner kick that was taken by Nicole. UVM took two free kicks in our third, the second one leading to a shot saved by Meg.

They had a shot go wide before Meg saved two of their shots. Then in the 17th minute, Nicole sent a pass to Neva, who flicked the ball into the left upper corner of their goal. Right after that, Meg saved two more UVM shots and sent one wide.

Chloe earned a free kick from midfield that was taken by Emeline before Pine saved two UVM shots. Mia J had a shot go wide before she was taken down for Colleen C’s free kick taken from midfield.

In the 29th minute, UVM’s free kick from midfield found the back of our net to even the score before a UVM shot was blocked for a corner. Pine saved their next shot, but the rolled the rebound into the left side of our goal to give them an advantage.

Mia J had a shot go wide before Sage earned a corner kick that was taken by Molly. Then in the last minute of the half, Pine came out to squelch a UVM attack before they sent a shot wide.

During the break, we discussed passing to feet on the ground, using the width of the field, stepping before they do and defending all together.

UVM had a shot go wide before their two free kicks from midfield - one resulting in a shot that went wide. They got a corner kick before sending a shot from the left side of the field into the upper right part of our net in the 46th minute.

Nicole and Neva had shots go wide before Maddie had hers saved. Kya earned a free kick in our third that was taken by Neva, whose shot was saved.

After UVM’s free kick from midfield, Genevieve and Mia J had shots saved and Mia J had one go over their crossbar. In the 72nd minute Sage almost scored when her diving header went just wide. 

Mia J had a shot saved before UVM sent a shot wide and Carly saved one of their shots. Mia J had another chance to score in the last minute of the game, but her shot was saved.

It mostly felt like a pretty even game. They were ecstatic while we organized to celebrate our seniors with wonderful heart-felt presentations.

at UMass A and B 5Oct2025

UMass bullied us into playing both games with their A and B teams at their field back-to-back instead of having one of them on a different date on our field - and they scheduled the two games on a Sunday no less. Very unsavory behavior!

By the time we left it was nearly 90F and on turf it felt like 100F/35+C. We had the misfortune of a conflict with the 50-mile hike from Moosilauke to Hanover, injuries and other commitments that left us with only 13 players for the first game and 12 for the second.

We wanted 30-minute halves because of having to play two games with few subs and high temperatures, but UMass A insisted on 35-minute halves. Not very nice hosts.

But we had such nice fans - Emeline’s mom brought great-looking fruit and Molly’s and Colleen Cranna’s parents were there!

We spoke about making short passes to feet in order to try to keep possession.

UMass A immediately put us under pressure and earned two early corner kicks before a shot of theirs hit our crossbar and Erika saved another. She caught a cross from another of their corner kicks before they sent a shot into the lower left corner of our net in the 12th minute.

After their next shot went over our crossbar, Pine had a shot saved before she earned a free kick in midfield that was taken by Meg. Erika made a other save before they had two more corner kicks, and near the end of the half she caught two more of the corner kicks.

During the break, we noted our good communication and suggested keeping it simple, releasing the ball quickly, switching the attack more often, going together as a team and looking up more to plan our passes.

After Erika took a free kick in our third, UMass shot hit our upright twice and had a shot go wide before they scored on a shot from the right side of the field into the lower left corner of our net. 

Erika saved two more shots before their corner kick three minutes from time; then their shot in the 68th minute from the right side of the field made it into the lower left corner of our net. After that, Sage earned a free kick in our third.

After about 30 minutes we faced UMass B, who insisted on 40-minute halves! Even less hospitable, we thought. We were down to one sub but weren’t complaining!

UMass B in the first minute scored on a shot from the right side of the field to the lower left corner of our net then three minutes later did the same but to the upper left corner of our net.

After their shot over our crossbar and a free kick from midfield, Sage saved their shot in the 9th minute. Emeline took a free kick from midfield before they scored a third goal with a high shot from about 25m.

But we weren’t giving up! Neva and Emeline both had shots go wide before Colleen B made a beautiful shot from the left side of the field into the upper right corner of their net in the 16th minute. She had another shot saved and Katelyn had a shot go wide before a UMass free kick in our third and a corner kick. 

Erika earned and took a free kick in our third before Sage saved a shot for a UMass corner kick; their ensuing shot went over our crossbar. In the last minute of the half, Neva had a shot go wide.

After the break, UMass B had a shot go wide before Colleen B earned a free kick from midfield that was taken by Meg. Emeline, now in goal, made a save for a UMass corner kick before they scored again with a shot from the right side of the field into the left corner of our net.

Molly had a shot go wide before Pine converted on Molly’s beautiful corner kick in 54th minute. After Katelyn’s shot was saved, Emeline made another save before Katelyn earned a free kick in midfield that was taken by Sage; immediately after that Neva did her magic to score our third goal in the 58th minute.

UMass took another corner kick before Emeline saved two more shots. Then she saved a penalty kick! They had two more corner kicks and a shot wide before Erika earned a free kick in our third and had a shot saved. 

Emeline made a other save before they scored again in the 71st minute. She made yet another save before Molly took a corner kick and Katelyn had a shot go wide.

At the end of the game, they had a shot go wide before stringing together several passes and scoring their sixth goal. Emeline made another save in the 80th minute!

We were proud of our tenacity!
