2008 Women's Soccer Preview

2007 was a record-breaking season for head coach Sue Ryan and the Stony Brook University women's soccer team. The Seawolves won eight games for a second consecutive season, recorded a school-record five conference victories, posted the seventh longest shutout streak in NCAA Division I women's soccer history and hosted its first ever America East Tournament game, a 2-1 victory over Maine. SBU was also ranked eighth and 10th in the Northeast Region by Soccer Buzz magazine and the NSCAA, respectively, its first ever regional rankings. This year they will look to build on that and move towards their ultimate goal: an America East Championship and the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament that goes with it. The Seawolves will open the 2008 season on Friday, August 22, hosting Long Island at Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium. Game time is set for 1 p.m. [+]
