Freshmen Abbey Cook, Mia Fuss and senior Casey Forman found the net, each scoring their first goal of the season. Forman also contributed an assist, while Magali Capdevila recorded her inaugural assist, linking play from midfield.
The match opened with a crucial save by Graves in the first half, preserving a 0-0 deadlock before the Quakers broke through. Lily White’s precise pass set up Fuss for the second goal, and Forman capped the scoring in the 84th minute, extending the lead to 3-0 before George Washington pulled one back through Ella Provost-Heron’s late strike.
Coach Hailey Adamsky’s side will look to carry the momentum into their next test against Stony Brook on Sunday at 1 p.m., a match that could further solidify their early-season momentum.
