Binghamton University’s women’s soccer squad kicked off the campaign in impressive fashion, routing their visitors 3-0 on home turf. The win not only showcased the team’s tactical discipline but also set an upbeat tone for the months ahead.
Between the posts, goalkeeper Chloe Zipprich was a wall of resistance. She produced a spectacular jump catch to deny Taylor Gabel’s early strike and later brushed aside Ava Chun’s attempt, preserving the clean sheet.
Key Performances
In the attacking third, forward Jahkaya Davis proved decisive, striking twice in the second half. Her first goal came from a well‑timed post‑play, while the second followed a crisp connection with teammate Page Luke that left the defense scrambling.
Chelsea Donaldson added the third marker, sealing the shutout and underscoring the depth of the Bearcats’ offensive options.
Head coach Neel Bhattacharjee praised the collective effort, noting that the squad’s preseason work had paid off in better chances and tighter cohesion. “We built on the foundations we laid in training, and the players executed with confidence,” he said.
Looking ahead, the team will keep the momentum rolling as they prepare for conference play in September, beginning with a home match against Marist this Sunday.
