HANOVER, New Hampshire – Dartmouth used four first half tallies to power past Quinnipiac women's soccer's comeback bid and claim the 4-2 win from Burnham Field. Nadya Gill (Toronto, Ontario) scored a pair of second half goals as the Bobcats climbed back in the game towards the latter half of the second stanza but the multi-goal performance wasn't enough to overcome the Big Green's first half onslaught.

POSTGAME COMMENTS
Head Coach Dave Clarke
"We need to stop giving away silly or needless goals. We have been the architects of our own downfall in a few games already and we have to put that right sooner rather than later. We know we are capable of scoring goals, but if we keep letting in three a game we will lose way more than we will win."

"We have another big test on Wednesday against arguably the best team in the region. We need to start on the front foot against Harvard to give ourselves any chance of getting something from the game."

UPCOMING GAME
Quinnipiac concludes non-conference play with a second straight Ivy League opponent on the road, as the Bobcats are set to take on Harvard on Wednesday afternoon. The Crimson pose another formidable test as Harvard has won three of the last four Ivy League titles. Harvard (4-2) is undefeated at home with wins coming over Providence and a marquee 1-0 victory over Boston College.
