MARCY, N.Y. – Russell Sage College Women's Soccer picked up three important Empire 8 Conference points with Wednesday's 3-1 victory at SUNY Poly.
The Gators (4-8-2/2-5-1 E8) got started quickly, holding a 2-0 lead just 6:18 in. After a SUNY Poly own goal 92 seconds in, senior forward Gianna Viscusi (Duanesburg, NY/Schalmont) doubled the RSC lead.
Just 1:43 into the second half, senior forward Lillihanna Delsignore (Schenectady, NY/Schalmont) increased the Gator advantage.
The support was more than enough for sophomore goalkeeper Hailey Blake (Schenectady, NY/Colonie Central) (Win, 3-2-1). She made four saves, with the lone Wildcats goal coming via a penalty kick in the 70th minute.
RSC, which out-shot SUNY Poly (1-11-2/0-7-0 E8) by a 19-7 margin, is back in action on Saturday at 4:00 pm against Keuka. The home contest will serve as the program's "Senior Day".
