The Engineers are still searching for their first win of the season after falling to the Wildcats on Friday.

Boston University 5, Clarkson 2

The Golden Knights could not salvage a split on the weekend, instead falling to 3-3-0 over after being swept by the Terriers.

Connecticut 2, Colgate 1

Senior Melissa Kueber scored less than five minutes into the third to tie things up at one apiece, but the Huskies found the game-winner with just five seconds remaining in the game. Ashlynne Rando recorded 23 saves between the pipes for the Raiders. | Box Score | GoColgateRaiders.com Recap
