Breakers defeat Boston College 8-0 in final preseason game

The Breakers continue to work on fitness and finishing to prepare for the season.

After a week in Florida in which the Boston Breakers made progress as a team but also couldn't seem to find the mark scoring-wise, they made whatever adjustments they needed and pelted Boston College with eight unanswered goals.

STARTING XI: Abby Smith, Mollie Pathman, Christen Westphal, Rachel Wood, Julie King, McCall Zerboni, Angela Salem, Kristie Mewis, Louise Schillgard, Stephanie McCaffrey, Kyah Simon

SUBS: Brooke Elby (Wood, 69'), Brittany Ratcliffe (Salem, 76'), Elise Krieghoff (Simon, 83')

SCORING SUMMARY: Simon (12', Zerboni), McCaffrey (32', Mewis), Schillgard (37'), Mewis (PK, 41'), Schillgard (51'), Zerboni (52', Mewis), Mewis (73', McCaffrey), Schillgard (74')

To be entirely fair Boston College is certainly not quite the same competition as Florida State, but they did put the Breakers through their paces and force them to retreat into patient play out of the back here and there.
