The No. 12 Scarlet Knights took on Villanova in Conshohocken, Pa, on a steamy, humid Friday evening in which the game was delayed one hour at the start due to weather. This was the fifth consecutive road match to start the season, all resulting in happy recaps, as former Mets announcer Bob Murphy would say.
The offense was led by the Netherlands duo of Puck Winter, who scored three goals, and Marique Dieudonne, who added two of her own. West Long Branch native Julianne Kopec added the 6th goal.
The Knights would take an early 1-0 lead in the 5th minute on Dieudonne’s first goal off an assist from Wake Forest impact transfer Ava Cickavage.
