A Dominant Home Performance
The Terriers opened the match with a swift response after San Francisco took an early lead, equalising just 62 seconds later through senior Kat Slott, whose strike matched her personal best for the season.
Freshman Sam Ryan celebrated her first collegiate goal, while junior Jaiden Schultz added her third goal of the campaign, extending her lead in the Patriot League scoring chart.
Boston University controlled the tempo, holding 57 percent possession and out‑shooting the visitors 22‑11 on target, a disparity reflected in eight corners to San Francisco's five.
Defensively, sophomore goalkeeper Jill Humphreys was tested only twice, making minimal saves, whereas San Francisco's Grace Wilson faced 14 attempts and recorded ten stops.
The backline contributed heavily, with sophomore Georgia Prouty leading all student‑athletes with five shots and senior Samantha Aronson adding three on target, while assists from Prouty, junior Elle Ceres, sophomore Nina Tzouganatos and Juliana Osterman helped shape the offense.
San Francisco's Alicia Osegueda had opened the scoring with a well‑placed finish assisted by Sydni Yoshida and Hannah Burns, but the Terriers' second‑half surge turned the game decisively in their favour.
With the 3‑1 result, Boston University improved its all‑time record against San Francisco to 2‑1 and now looks ahead to a September 3 showdown with Harvard, aiming to build momentum early in the season.
