Schultz Shines as BU Forward of the Week

The Boston University star’s comeback culminates in a decisive victory and a looming matchup with Fairfield

A Comeback to Remember

The Patriot League recognized senior forward Jaiden Schultz with its weekly Forward of the Week honor after she helped the Terriers post a 5-1 victory over UAlbany.

Returning from a season‑long injury, Schultz wasted no time making her presence felt, netting two goals in the second half that turned a close contest into a decisive win.

Her first strike arrived in the 49th minute after a rebound, and she doubled the lead in the 67th minute by redirecting a free‑kick, marking her first multi‑goal game in collegiate play.

The performance also delivered the program’s highest non‑conference goal total since 2003, highlighting a broader offensive surge for the Terriers.

Looking ahead, Boston University will host Fairfield on Thursday, August 20, at 6 p.m., a matchup that could further amplify the momentum built around Schultz’s breakout.
