Springfield, Mass.-Two goals in the final fifteen minutes of the match lifted the University of Bridgeport women's soccer team to a 2-0 road win over the host American International College Yellow in UB's final non-conference tilt of the season on Thursday night. The Purple Knights, who are unbeaten in their last four outings, are now 8-6-1 overall in 2021. AIC is now 7-7-1 on the year.
Junior Leigh-Ann Ramsay (Bronx, N.Y.) broke the scoreless deadlock with 75:13 gone in the contest when she put home her third goal of the season off a corner from sophomore Samantha St. Pierre (Granby, Conn.) to give the Purple Knights a 1-0 advantage.
Graduate student Andrea Basilicato (Guilford, Conn.) gave Bridgeport some breathing room when she found the back of the net for the fourth time in 2021 just over five minutes later.
UB freshman goalkeeper Clara Karlsson (Umea, Sweden) made one save to notch her fourth clean sheet of the season.
On the night, the Purple Knights outshot the Yellow Jackets, 15-8.
Up next, the Bridgeport women's soccer team returns to Knights Field on Saturday afternoon to host the Lions of Lincoln (Pa.) University in an East Coast Conference match. Game time is set for 3:00 p.m.
