Nice start for those two teams.

Stag's beat UAB 3-2. Megan Theiler who is the stags best player IMO , did not show up in box score. Must be injured?

[ctbobs]

Agree, she must be injured. Her absence makes the BC win even more impressive.

Disagree; Skyler Day #1 player. Theiler also excellent.

Stags lose to Providence 0-3, But games were close.

Fairfield......... 19 26 21. Theiler still out.
Providence..... 25 28 25

"Going 2-1 with Megan [Theiller] out is a good step for us," Kress continued. "We talked this weekend about adversity not building character, but that adversity reveals one's character. I can say wholeheartedly that this group will not back down from a challenger the remainder of the season. This weekend went a long way in revealing that."
