LOWELL — A pair of first-half goals proved to be the difference, as No. 18 ranked Umass Lowell defeated America East foe Vermont, 2-1, on Friday afternoon in downpour conditions at Wicked Blue Field.
The River Hawks (8-2) improve to 6-0 at home and stretch their win streak to six games, matching the Division I program record set in 2022. This also marks the second consecutive year that the River Hawks have started conference play 2-0.
“This game every season, is one of our most competitive games,” said head coach Shannon Leblanc. “I think Vermont and Umass Lowell formed a rivalry way back when, so we always know we have to come in and play a really great game in order to beat Vermont.”
Sophomore Madison Leeper (East Amherst) and senior Alissia de Vries (The Hague, Netherlands) each tallied a goal in the decision, while junior Cate Kleeman (Gibbsboro, N.J.) and senior Mirthe Gans (Tiel, Netherlands) each picked up an assist.
