Women's Soccer opens 2021 season with two wins at NWAC Friendlies

Raiders Women's Soccer opened the Fall 2021 season with two big wins at the NWAC Friendlies! On Wednesday, the women beat Blue Mountain, 2-1. Madison Ryneski scored the team's first goal of the season in the 8th minute, and Haleigh Delaire scored the game winner in the 74th minute. Assistant Coach Luke Howells commented, "the team adjusted well and showed some really good moments early on in the second half. The pivotal moment was a free kick taken beautifully from deep, and an acrobatic finish by Haleigh." Howells went on to say, "the Raiders showed great composure against moments of real pressure, but walked away victorious."
On Thursday, the Raiders won big over Treasure Valley, 4-1. Amelia Swain scored first for the Raiders (31st min.). Then Pierce took off in the second half with Ryneski scoring twice (61st and 74th minutes), and Delaire finding the net in the 90th minute.
The Raiders return to the pitch on 9/4, hosting North Idaho at Heritage Rec Center.
Great start to the season, Raiders!!!
