Soccer Teams Start Season with High Hopes

Related Topics: sports season, Belson Stadium

Soccer is back in action at Belson Stadium again as the St. John’s men’s and women’s soccer teams have begun a new season.

The women’s team is ready to storm back from their heartbreaking Big East semifinals loss last season. Six new Johnnies were added to the roster over the offseason and are ready to help continue the team’s winningest four-year stretch in program history.

They’ve started 4-1-1 (as of Sept. 10), with strong victories over Marist and Fairfield, followed by an exhilarating win over UConn in the first match of the CCSU Tournament. Their first match of the season however, a drawn out double overtime grind at La Salle that was delayed three hours and forty-seven minutes due to poor weather, was an exhausting beginning to the season for the Red Storm.
