Götesson's Strike Gives Seawolves Second Consecutive Win

STONY BROOK, N.Y. –Thanks to a 65th-minute strike from junior Fanny Götesson (Varnamo, Sweden), the Stony Brook women's soccer program won its second game in as many tries, defeating Manhattan 2-1 on a beautiful Sunday afternoon at LaValle Stadium.
 
Götesson intercepted a Manhattan pass just outside the penalty area and was able to take a touch to her right and finish low into the left corner to give the Seawolves the lead for good.
 
BISCHOF'S REACTION
"I'm very happy with the girls. They have given great effort to become better in practices and in games but we still have a lot of work to do with our team. We know we still have to improve in a lot of aspects in out game. Today, we did a great job of putting the ball into positions where we can score and we did with Ranae and Fanny's goals. They were very well-taken goals."

SCORING SUMMARY
  • 36thminute – Stony Brook 1, Manhattan 0 – Sophomore Ranae Ward (Trincity, Trinidad) had been on the field for 33 seconds before taking a touch outside the left edge of the penalty area and curling a ball into the far netting.
