SAINT ROSE ADVANCES TO NE-10 CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL

ALBANY–The College of Saint Rose scored three times in the second half to upend Adelphi 3-0 in today's Northeast-10 Conference Championship Semifinal at Sullivan Field at the Plumeri Sports Complex. The seventh-ranked Golden Knights (17-1-2) are now a win away from their seventh NE-10 Championship within the past eight years. They will visit top-seed Assumption on Sunday in an attempt to claim another title.
 
Senior forward Carmelina Puopolo scored her league-leading 18th goal of the year that amounted to her eighth game-winner at the 68:06 mark. Freshman forward Morgan Burchhardt then added an insurance tally with 83:48 gone by and senior midfielder Meeghan Arno closed it out less than four minutes later.
 
Senior Sam Whitney, the 2013 and 2104 NE-10 Goalkeeper of the Year, recorded three saves in each period to keep Adelphi (13-5-1) very much in the match for most of the contest. Sophomore Ashley Homer did not need to make a save, but nevertheless distributed the ball flawlessly as the Golden Knights defenders routinely played it back to her throughout a cold, damp, and windy afternoon.
 
The match started out slow before the Golden Knights built some momentum throughout the latter stages of the first half. They then kept probing the Panthers defense after halftime, before striking three times in the final 22 minutes. Saint Rose manufactured an 11-2 shot advantage during the decisive second stanza.
 
Puopolo delivered first by driving home a loose ball in the area and Burchhardt knocked home a second rebound after Whitney initially thwarted both her and Puopolo. Arno then gathered a 50-50 ball, dribbled into area and turned her defender to create space on the right side, before firing a shot that slipped inside the far post.
