Women's Soccer: Dramatic Win Over Harvard Propels No. 25 UConn to Best Start Since 1998

UConn scored twice in the final five minutes to complete a come-from-behind victory against Harvard, improving to 5-0-0 for the first time in 17 years.

STORRS—When Harvard forward Margaret Purce scored with 20 minutes to play Sunday afternoon, it put No. 25 UConn in tough spot, especially when chances were not going the Huskies way.

"Everyone's heads went down, you could see it," junior forward Rachel Hill said. "It was slower pace."

In the final five minutes of the game at Morrone Stadium, the Huskies found a way to pick themselves up. Sam McGuire scored an equalizer with 4:44 remaining, and Hill scored incredibly from outside the box with 36 seconds to play as UConn came from behind to beat Harvard 2-1.
