Box Score

ALBANY, N.Y. — The Boston University women's soccer team fired on all cylinders in a 5-1 win over the UAlbany Great Danes on Sunday afternoon.

The Terriers (1-1, 0-0 Patriot League) blitzed the Great Danes (0-1, 0-0 America East) with three goals in a ten-minute span in the first half, then closed out the effort with two second-half tallies.

Junior Jaiden Schultz notched a brace and senior Kat Slott, junior Juliana Osterman and sophomore Georgia Prouty all scored a goal each. Sophomore Jill Humphreys made the start in net and recorded one save.

HOW IT HAPPENED

Humphreys was tested in just the second minute, diving to her left to stop a Great Danes shot from 18 yards out.
The first Terrier shot came in the ninth minute, as senior Ava Maguire darted in from the left flank before releasing her shot, but it was easily turned away by the UAlbany keeper.
In the 20^th minute, a long ball into the Great Danes box met the foot of a UAlbany player, who fired a shot squarely into the post.
The Terriers' first goal of the 2026 season came in the 32^nd minute, when Slott unloaded a left-footed shot from 25 yards out to beat the Great Danes' goalkeeper.
Then just five minutes later, Prouty put a shot on target off a short corner. Osterman cut it off before it reached the net and turned around to blast the ball home.
BU pounced on another chance less than two minutes later as Prouty turned on the jets on the left side of the field to pass a defender before her left-footed shot pinged the right post and crossed the goal line, solidifying a 3-0 lead in the 39^th minute.
UAlbany had a chance to score in the 49^th minute as a dangerous shot came from near the penalty spot, but it glanced off the crossbar and went high for a goal kick.
Schultz's first goal came in the 50^th minute. She was in the box when a rebound was backheeled to her by freshman Elle Ceres. Schultz calmly poked the ball into the goal to add onto the lead.
Seventeen minutes later, Schultz earned her brace. Senior Ciara Kennedy swung a free kick into the box and the ball met Schultz's knee, which guided it into the net.
In the 90^th minute, UAlbany broke through with a goal of their own from outside the box.

23 of the 26 rostered Terriers saw action in the contest.
