Boston College’s women’s soccer squad continued its flawless start to the season, edging Dartmouth 1‑0 in a tightly contested match at the Newton Soccer Complex.
The decisive moment arrived in the 71st minute when Addy Kalaw slipped past a defender and fired a low strike that beat the goalkeeper, marking her third goal of the campaign and cementing the Eagles’ lead.
Guarded by a disciplined back line, the Eagles dominated possession for much of the game, holding a 52‑percent share of the ball and out‑shooting Dartmouth 17‑13. Their set‑piece efficiency was also evident, with a 10‑3 advantage in corner kicks.
Between the posts, Faith Fenwick turned in a stellar performance, making three saves that preserved the clean sheet and earned her the first shutout of her career while delivering the fourth win of the season.
A Defensive Masterclass
What stood out most was the team’s ability to blend attacking intent with defensive solidity. Coach’s tactical adjustments paid off, as the side limited Dartmouth’s chances while creating enough quality chances to deserve the narrow victory.
The win not only extends the Eagles’ unbeaten run but also signals their readiness for tougher conference matchups ahead. With a perfect blend of experience and youthful energy, Boston College looks poised to maintain its upward trajectory.
