The Stony Brook women’s soccer team was held scoreless through the first 88 minutes, but all they needed were the final two. The team opened up the 2022-23 sports year for the University by pulling off an improbable come-from-behind victory over Fordham 2-1.
Stony Brooks women’s soccer team celebrated their victory on Sunday, October 24 against UMass Lowell with a 1-0 lead. Number 25, Madison Sleiman, scored the winning goal with just 33 seconds left on the clock.
Despite finishing the season with a 1-0 win against the UMBC Retrievers on Oct. 28, the Stony Brook women’s soccer team will sit out the playoffs for the first time since 2015.
The first goal of defender Madison Sleiman’s career couldn’t have come at a better time. Sleiman single-handedly kept the SBU women’s soccer team’s season alive with a goal in the final seconds that secured a 1-0 win over the UMass Lowell River Hawks.
The Stony Brook women’s soccer team’s three-game losing streak is over — but that’s about the only positive takeaway from a week that saw the Seawolves fall to 5-8-2 (2-4-1 AE).
