Last Time Out
Columbia's comeback attempt fell short last Sunday to Bucknell at home. A 2-1 loss featured all three goals of the match coming in the third period. Down 2-0, Sophia Abate netted her first goal of the year by putting home a rebound to cut the Bison's lead in half. The Lions ran out of time in the final frame as they registered just two shots.
The Lions earned their first victory of the year and of the Niki Miller era with a thrilling 1-0 win in double overtime last Friday night against LIU. Columbia has now won four straight home openers. After nearly 77 minutes of scoreless play, Lindsey Yu cashed in off a penalty corner that was sent in from Delfina Gonzalez Lobo. It was Yu's first goal of the season.
