Bearcats play to scoreless tie against New Hampshire

Box Score

Despite several good chances to get on the scoreboard, the Binghamton women's soccer team (6-5-1, 0-2-1 AE) had to settle for a 0-0 tie against New Hampshire (3-5-3, 1-0-1 AE) in an America East Conference matchup on Sunday at West Gym Field. It marks the first time that Binghamton has played to a scoreless tie since Oct. 6, 2002 in a game at Maine.

"I thought our effort overall was good today," head coach Jeff Leightman said. "New Hampshire is a good team and we were able to move the ball around but we just couldn't get it in (the net)."

Binghamton's best opportunity to finish the game came midway through the first sudden-death overtime period. It was then that senior forward Tracy Kasmarcik (Binghamton, N.Y./ Susquehanna Valley) shot beat the Wildcats' keeper but slid just left of the goal.

For the game, Binghamton outshot New Hampshire 14-12.

Freshmen keeper Kristie Doerner (Shoreham, N.Y./ Shoreham-Wading River) made six saves in recording her first career solo shutout.

The Bearcats have now shut out five opponents this season.

Up next, Binghamton hosts Stony Brook on Saturday at noon.
