LOUDONVILLE, NY – Rebeca Frisk’s second goal of the afternoon in the 78^th minute propelled UMass past Siena Women’s Soccer 3-2 in the Saints’ home opener. Carrie Krohn and Katrina Kurtz both scored for Siena.

An evenly matched, seesaw affair featured a trio of goals within the first 25 minutes, with UMass (3-1-1) claiming an early 2-1 lead. Lauren Bonavita opened the scoring in the third minute, and then set up Frisk’s first score midway through the opening half.

Krohn got Siena (0-5) on the board in the 12^th minute, beating her defender down the field on a long service from Sophia Dimkopoulos via Deanna Lomino. The Saints then knotted the score in the 62^nd minute on the freshman Kurtz’s first collegiate tally, which she roofed home from 30 yards out off a feed from Emily McNelis.

But with just over 12 minutes remaining in regulation, the Minutewomen struck last as Frisk broke loose from a pair of defenders and went top shelf from 40 yards away for the decisive tally.

Each side registered 14 shots apiece, with the Saints holding a 5-4 edge in corner kicks.

Taylor Dorado made a season-high eight saves for Siena which saw its four-match winning streak in home openers snapped.

Peyton Ryan stopped six shots for a hot UMass squad which was fresh off wins over ACC foe Pittsburgh and Big East opponent Providence.

The Saints conclude their home-opening weekend Sunday when they host reigning Northeast Conference Champion Central Connecticut at 4 p.m.
