Syracuse ranked No. 11 in the third week of the National Field Hockey Coaches Association poll. SU (7-1, 1-0 Atlantic Coast). Syracuse won both of its games last week and earned 11 more points in the poll compared to week two.
Syracuse began ACC play last week, facing then-No. 18 Duke. Charlotte de Vries continued her offensive dominance, scoring two goals en route to a 5-1 victory. Quirine Comans also scored one goal and assisted two.
The Orange followed that up with a 1-0 victory over Hofstra. SU struggled to find the back of the net, but Laura Graziosi scored the one and only goal with two minutes left in the fourth quarter on a penalty stroke. The Orange still outshot their opponent 18-1.
On Friday, SU will travel to Virginia to take on the No. 10 Cavaliers. This conference matchup will begin at 4 p.m. SU will follow up that game back at home against Dartmouth, its third Ivy League opponent of the year.
