Cornell Women’s Soccer Notches First Win Over Siena College 1-0

For the second year in a row, the women’s soccer team kicked their season off against in-state opponent Siena College. While last year’s opener ended in a draw, this year’s saw Cornell get the better of the Saint Bernards in a 1-0 win. Junior forward Paige DeLoach had the team’s lone goal in the fifth minute which was all that was necessary to secure the win. The Red’s defense, and especially senior goalkeeper Kelsey Tierney, was able to hold off the Saints for the game’s last 85 minutes. “Overall, I think the team played very well through the heat and tough conditions,” DeLoach said.

Men’s Lacrosse Drops Final Game to Princeton, Blames Poor Offensive Execution

The Cornell men’s lacrosse team (6-7, 1-5 Ivy) finished its season on a disappointing note this Saturday with a 7-6 loss to rival Princeton (5-8, 2-4 Ivy). Although the game had no postseason implications, the Cornell-Princeton rivalry is one of the oldest in collegiate lacrosse and there is always pride riding on the game for the sake of the rivalry regardless of each team’s standings. Early goals from senior midfielder Ryan Matthews and sophomore midfielder Kason Tarbell left the Red with an early 2-0 lead with 11:26 remaining in the first quarter. However, three late first quarter goals from Princeton junior attack Gavin McBride (and one from junior defenseman Marshall Peters) left the teams tied 3-3 going out of the first quarter. The Tigers outscored the Red 3-1 in the second quarter to send the game to halftime with Princeton leading 6-4.

With Nothing But Pride to Play for, Cornell Men’s Lacrosse Takes on Princeton

This year’s clash against Princeton feels a little different than most years for the Cornell men’s lacrosse team. Unlike most years, neither team is in contention for either the Ivy League or NCAA tournaments. This means that the game carries no weight in postseason play. Nevertheless — given it is one of the best rivalries in collegiate lacrosse — there is a lot of pride that comes with the game.

Men’s Lacrosse Faces Tough Test With No. 3 Brown on Senior Day

With two Ivy League games left in the season and an Ivy League title still at play, it is crunch time for the men’s lacrosse team.

Cornell (6-5, 1-3 Ivy) welcomes No. 3 Brown (11-1, 4-0) tomorrow on Schoellkopf field. Riding a two-game winning streak, this game will be key for maintaining positive momentum continuing through the end of the season.
