Emily Flynn’s highlight strike in the third minute put the Rams on their way to an opening victory over the visiting Huskies at Cimini Stadium in Providence on Tuesday, Sept. 1.

Flynn found the top right corner from all of 25 yards and La Salle was razor-sharp from there while playing for the first time this season as defending state champions. Mila Falcone tucked one under the crossbar in the 13th minute and Allie Scott headed home a rebound off a Falcone shot in the 35th as the Rams took complete command before the break. 

Scott added her second shortly after halftime to continue what was a strong performance along the left wing for La Salle (1-0-0). Grace Keenan made a sliding left-handed save on Mt. Hope striker Sara Nencka in the 70th minute to preserve the shutout. The Huskies (0-2-0) played without All-Stater and Boston College commit EmmaGoglia, who was nursing a minor injury.  

Both teams scored in first half on a rain soaked evening at Augeri Field in Westerly, with the Purple’s Lucy Weber striking in the first two minutes, and the Bulldogs finding the equalizer at the 30-minute mark.

Westerly’s Sienna Mathieu scored her team’s lone goal, assisted by Isabella Wheeler, and goalie Phoebe Brennan recorded three saves late in the game to preserve the tie.

Westerly had nine shots on goal (five corner kicks) and Classical had six shots on goal (two corner kicks).
