Women's Soccer Scores Four Unanswered Goals in 5-3 Win
PHILADELPHIA, PA. - The Bryant women's soccer team scored four unanswered goals in the second half, including three in the span of six minutes, as the visiting Bulldogs came from behind to defeat Holy Family 5-3 Tuesday afternoon at Tiger Field.
Trailing 3-1 in the 50th minute, sophomore Alex Dipippo (Shelton, CT) scored two goals 1:28 apart to tie the game.
Five minutes later, senior tri-captain Tricia Spada (Dedham, MA) put the Bulldogs ahead with the game-winning tally on a penalty kick and gave them insurance when she posted her second of the match in the 86th minute.
Sophomore Holly Tyser (Somers, CT), who
assisted on Spada's second tally, scored Bryant's first goal,
unassisted at 10:55 to tie the game at one.
Holy Family took an early 1-0 lead just seven minutes in as Kelly
Spross scored unassisted. After Tyser evened the score, Ashley
Antczak scored on a header off of a Jennifer James assist for a 2-1
lead. James would assist on the next goal, another header this time
from Kelsey Marvill at 23:15 for a 3-1 Tiger lead.
