The Cougars' stingy defense from last spring's squad remained true to form to start the fall, holding the defending Atlantic 10 Conference champions scoreless for the first half-hour. Taylor Spiller started the match between the sticks and kept a clean sheet before being replaced in goal by the returning Jensen Schoch. Bella Henderson also made her return to the Korte Stadium pitch, standing in net for the final third of tonight's match. Also making appearances were six newcomers to the squad, all of whom saw their first taste of collegiate playing time.
