It's still Sunday Night, but here we go. Exciting day, indeed.

Field Hockey: The Huskies
defeated Syracuse in Double Overtime, 3-2. They thus clinched at least a share of the Big East title and secured at least a share of the regular season title. They can clinch it outright by beatng Rutgers next Friday. The Huskies are now an amazing 15-1 on the season. The game was very exciting throughout. Cara Silverman got things started in the 14th minute off a Penalty Corner but the Orange scored two goals within two minutes of eachother early in the second half to go up 2-1. The Huskies bounced back, however, as Anne Jeute scored at 49:37 to even the game. It would go to overtime, and eventually in the second OT, Jeute played a long ball into the circle and Marie Elene Bolles poked it home for the game winner.
Women's Volleyball: A tough loss for the Huskies today. They lost to Georgetown 3-2. The Huskies lost the first set but took the next two. But Georgetown won set #4 25-20 and #5 went 15-11 in favor of the Hoyas. So went the match. The Huskies are now 1-7 in the conference and 11-12 overall. Jordan Kirk had 15 kills while Mattison Quayle and Devon Maugle each had 14. Next up, the Huskies host Notre Dame and DePaul, next Saturday and Sunday at 2 PM.
Football: Gameday is only two days away (from Monday) as the Huskies will roll into Pittsburgh to face the Panthers. I'll write more on that tomorrow along this week's awars.
