#11 SAINT ROSE HEADS INTO THE POSTSEASON ON A HIGH NOTE

ALBANY, N.Y. – The College of Saint Rose wrapped up its regular-season campaign on a high note with tonight's 2-1 Northeast-10 Conference triumph against visiting New Haven. The Golden Knights (14-2-1/10-2-1 NE10), ranked #11 in this week's United Soccer Coaches National poll, overcame an early 1-0 deficit and manufactured a 22-8 shot advantage while twice rattling the crossbar.
 
Saint Rose has thus secured the top-seed in the upcoming NE10 Championship Tournament that gets underway Sunday at home sites. The Golden Knights, who will be seeking their eighth conference postseason title, will host eighth-seed Pace University in a 1:00 pm quarterfinal match. Saint Rose upended the then #24 Setters 2-1, in double overtime in Albany back on September 24.
 
As for tonight, senior forward Nina Predanic set up both Saint Rose strikes. Freshman forward Olivia Boucher tied it with her tenth goal of the year at the 18:42 mark when she drove home Predanic's initial deflected shot four minutes after the Chargers (4-11-2/3-9-1 NE10) had gone ahead. Senior forward Caitlyn Dabagian then collected a Predanic pass, dribbled up the left flank and fired a shot from 15-yards out inside the right post with 33:03 expired.

New Haven broke through first when forward Maaike Rahms, a graduate student, one-touched a feed off the left flank from junior forward Samantha Roth.
 
In goal, junior keeper Marika Laurendeau recorded four of her five saves throughout the second half. Junior Paige Davis was forced to turn aside nine threats-on-target at the other end for the Chargers.
Pregame Ceremony: Prior to tonight's kickoff, head coach Laurie Darling Gutheil was presented with a commemorative ball in recognition of reaching the 350-win plateau earlier this season…Only 25 other women's soccer coaches at any NCAA level have reached that milestone.
