against Quinnipiac. We left Brown around 5 to make the short drive to Providence
College. The atmosphere on the bus was great, as everyone believed we could beat
the 18th ranked team in the country.
The stands were full of both Brown and Providence supporters as the game started.
We had the better of the play for the first 10-15 minutes, and then Providence
controlled much of the rest of the first half. The score was still locked at zero at
halftime.
The second half started and we came out playing very well. We were rewarded for
our fast start with an early goal in the second half; Nico Lozada sent in a good cross
into the box, and a Providence defender turned the ball into his own net. A few
minutes later Providence equalized with a nice volley. We responded well,
dominating much of the second half. We hit the post twice in the waning minutes,
but the 90 minutes ended at 1-1.
It only took Brown 7 minutes to find the net and end the match. Freshman Jack
Hagstrom battled for the ball in the box after a long throw, and nailed a shot into the
right corner. We were ecstatic to get the win against a top opponent. The team spirit
was great after starting the season 2-0.
