The Tufts men’s swim and dive teams took on Bowdoin this past weekend, coming out on top 197–90 on the score sheet.
Between her 2021 NESCAC Rookie of the Year award, two Rawlings Gold Gloves and now a top 30 honoree for the NCAA Woman of the Year award, Tufts graduate student Sophia DiCocco’s resume seems to grow limitlessly as she enters her fifth year as a Jumbo.
Coming off a tremendous win against the former No. 1, nationally ranked Middlebury College, the Tufts field hockey team rode that momentum into an offensively dominant win against Roger Williams on Sunday. The Jumbos defeated the Hawks 5–1 Sunday evening at home, remaining undefeated on Ounjian Field so far this season.
The Jumbos returned from a trip to Lewiston, Maine with a 3–1 win, improving their NESCAC record to 4–2–1. Tufts junior forward Elsi Aires and junior defender Lena Sugrue each scored a goal in the first half. First-year midfielder Sarah Hauck scored her second goal of the 2024 season late in the 79th minute.
Tufts field hockey’s lone goal didn’t prove to be enough in their NESCAC conference loss to Wesleyan University. The defeat on Saturday ended the Jumbos’ five-game win streak, moving them to fourth in the conference. Despite the Jumbos outshooting the Cardinals 9–3, Wesleyan forward Teddy Tolbert was assisted by midfielder Brooke Miner for their first goal of the game early in the second quarter, with Miner scoring a goal of her own less than two minutes later on a penalty shot.
Tufts field hockey cruised through last week, taking both away games against MIT and Hamilton 2–0 and 3–0. On Saturday, graduate student midfielder Andrea DelGiudice scored two goals in the second quarter. Junior forward Hannah Biccard extended the lead in the fourth quarter following a well-placed pass by senior forward Claire Gavin. With the win, the Jumbos improved their NESCAC record to 3–1. In the matchup against MIT, both teams were ranked within the top 15 of Division 3 teams. Sophomore midfielder Claire Casey and senior forward Kylie Rosenquest took charge offensively, with Casey scoring the first goal of her career in the final minutes of the second quarter. Rosenquest sealed the game in the fourth after a penalty was awarded to the Jumbos.
