#21 Rutgers Women’s Soccer Boots Loyola Marymount 3-0 In Season Opener

The Rutgers women’s soccer team started off the 2017 campaign with a convincing 3-0 victory over Loyola Marymount on Friday afternoon at Yurcak Field in Piscataway. LMU finished last season with a 11-5-3 record, but they were no match for the #21st ranked Scarlet Knights.

Rutgers has 21 freshmen and sophomores on the roster this season. That youth proved from the start of the game they will have a major impact on this season, as all the scoring came from that group.

The heralded 2017 recruiting class for head coach Mike O’Neill wasted little time in shining in their first game of their Rutgers careers.
