Kaldaridou Plays Key Role at UEFA U-19 Championship: Freshman midfielder Danae Kaldaridou played a key role to help Greece advance to the elite round of the UEFA European U-19 Championship that will take place next April. The central midfielder, who has represented Greece in three previous U-17 Championships, scored the game-winner to help lead Greece to Sunday's 7-0 win versus Georgia. Kaldaridou started and played every minute of all three matches and was a team captain throughout this past week's qualifying round in Switzerland.

Upstate Challenge: Le Moyne and Saint Rose announced the formation of the Upstate Challenge rivalry series in the fall of 2011. The two schools square off in 16 sports in which they compete head-to-head in the regular season or during the NE-10 Championship. The winner of the series is awarded the 'Upstate Challenge' trophy. The competition originally included 14 sports, but grew to 16 at the outset of the 2014-15 season after the Dolphins added track and field programs. The all-time series stands at 1-1-2 with the two ties occurring in each of the past two years to allow Le Moyne to retain the trophy.
 
Up Next: Both squads are on the road with league matches this Saturday. The Golden Knights will travel to Springfield for a 2:00 pm date at American International, while the Dolphins will head to Manchester, NH for an 11:00 am meeting at Saint Anselm.
