20 WINS FOR LESESNE

A SOLID BACKLINE

In game one at Purdue, the defenders were able to keep the Boilermakers out of the final third for the first 15 minutes of the game and stayed solid throughout. Against Binghamton in game two, the Bulldogs held the Bearcats to one shot in the entire 90 minute match.
