Binghamton, New York- In a rematch of last year's Region 3 final, the Genesee Women's Soccer Team took on SUNY Broome for their first game of the season. The Cougars split their scoring between the halves, scoring one goal in each. In the 33rd minute of the game, Genesee was awarded what would end up being their only corner kick of the game. Sophomore defenseman, Sophia Bixby (Spencerport, New York), stepped up to take the corner, Bixby put the ball in the box and found the head of freshmen midfielder, Grace Devine (Rochester, New York) to put the Cougars up 1-0.

The lone goal of the second half came in the 66th minute, after freshmen forward, Katelyn Hagstrom (Falconer, New York) was fouled in the penalty area. Sophomore defender, Julie Coble (Kendall, New York) took the penalty kick and confidently put it away to make the score 2-0. Genesee would put 16 shots on frame in the contest, coming from eight different players. Sarah Kidder (Akron, New York) would earn her first clean sheet of the season and her collegiate career, making eight saves to secure the win.

The Cougars are on the road again Wednesday September 6th in a match against the Jayhawks of Jamestown Community College.
