Kierra Caissey, of the Utica College women’s soccer team, has been named the UC Female Athlete of the Week for her performance over the weekend. Caissey’s effort helped lead the Pioneers to a 4-0 win over SUNY Canton, to earn the team its first win of 2018.
She started things off on Saturday with a goal around the 31st minute mark, scoring the team’s first goal of the season to go up 1-0. Caissey capped off the day with a second score, coming in the second half, to secure Utica the 4-0 win. Kierra’s two score day registers as a career-high for a single game, as she has now matched her freshman season’s output early on this season as a sophomore.
The Pioneers are now 1-2-1 overall on the year, heading into Friday’s home game against SUNY Potsdam. The match is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m.
