The UConn women’s soccer team fell to 0-2 on the season after dropping their home opener to Syracuse, 2-1. The Huskies have failed to win their first home game for the second straight season.
Syracuse struck first with a goal in the 8th minute when Sydney Brackett got behind the UConn defense and sunk the breakaway goal into the back of the net.
However, the Huskies didn’t take long to respond. Two minutes later, Elena Santos slotted a ball through to a wide-open Sophia Danyko-Kulchycky, who beat the keeper and put the ball into the empty net.
