HARVARD 23, BOSTON COLLEGE 2
The Crimson kick-started its weekend and season with quite the confidence boost Saturday morning by pelting 23 goals into the back of their cross-town rival’s net.
Sophomore Aisha Price led the charge by scoring two times as many goals on her own than the whole Eagles roster could in the 32 minutes of the contest. Her younger sister, Shayna, contributed two goals and led the team in steals.
“I don’t think you can ever expect this kind of performance on the first day,” Minnis said. “I’m really happy with the girls…and I’m pleasantly surprised by the way they played.”
