Bulls Split Weekend Competition

The University at Buffalo women’s soccer team picked up its first Mid-American Conference victory of the season Friday night, downing Eastern Michigan University, 3-2. The Bulls mounted a second half comeback sparked by sophomore Andrea Vescio’s (Niagara Falls, Ontario/A.N. Myer) two goal performance and a single goal from junior defender Amanda Corteau (St. Catherines, Ontario/ Denis Morris), her first of the season. The Bulls then fell to the Central Michigan Chippewas, 1-0 on Sunday to finish the weekend home stand with a 1-1 record.

Vescio’s second goal came shortly into the second half as the sophomore composed a pass from junior Ashley Turner (Olean, NY/Olean) and tied the game on a laser that soared past the EMU goalkeeper.
