RINDGE, N.H. - The Saint Michael's College women's soccer team stood tied with Franklin Pierce University on Saturday afternoon until a little more than eight minutes remained during an eventual 3-1 loss during its season finale at Sodexo Field. The Purple Knights concluded 2015 at 1-15-1 overall and 0-14 in the Northeast-10 Conference, while the Ravens ended up 8-9 and 5-9.

First-year back Sarah Williams (Bronx, N.Y./The Ursuline School) netted her second goal of the year for Saint Michael's, while senior Kaylee Sullivan (East Greenwich, R.I./East Greenwich) tallied three stops in her final collegiate contest. Sullivan will graduate ninth in program history in career keeper minutes (2,796:23).

First-year Nathalia Maria da Silva scored twice in the closing 8:04 for Franklin Pierce to snap a tie, while senior Hannah Weagle also tallied. Classmate Katie Weldon recorded a pair of stops. The Ravens held narrow advantages in shots, 12-9, and corner kicks, 6-4.

Senior Meagan Brady (Warwick, N.Y./Warwick Valley/Vermont) had the first shot on net of the contest, being denied by Weldon at 6:09, and Weagle's try was turned aside by Sullivan 29 seconds later. However, Weagle broke through with the game's first goal in the 38th minute, as senior Kaycee Pereira sent her on a breakaway to score at 37:47. The Purple Knights countered fewer than three minutes later, as junior Michaela Horne (Southboro, Mass./Algonquin Regional) sent a free kick to the head of Williams, who knotted the game with 40:39 gone.

Less than a minute later, senior Cassie Chernicki's (Hanson, Mass./Whitman-Hanson Regional) corner kick feed was redirected off the crossbar by classmate Marianna Nowacki (Binghamton, N.Y./Binghamton).

Da Silva sent a corner kick in the 48th minute for Weagle, who struck a shot high of the frame, and da Silva followed in the 59th minute by ringing the crossbar. Brady hit the crossbar in the 79th minute before grabbing the rebound and sending a follow-up high of the net. Da Silva ended up breaking the deadlock at 81:56, scoring at the end of a corner-kick sequence that she started with the entry cross. Da Silva doubled the lead in the 88th minute, sending in a corner kick before receiving a pass back from junior Nicole Chaet and hitting the upper right.
