Rutgers-Camden Athletics

It isn’t often that your first two collegiate appearances result in back-to-back victories on consecutive days, including your first collegiate shutout, but that’s exactly what happened to Rutgers-Camden freshman goalie Kyrsten Piper over the weekend. Piper posted a 2-1 victory over Shenandoah University on Saturday in her first collegiate game, notching the Scarlet Raptors’ first win of the season. She made eight saves and the only goal Shenandoah scored came off a penalty kick. On Sunday, Piper notched her first shutout, making 10 saves to help the Scarlet Raptors nip North Carolina Wesleyan College, 1-0. With Piper’s work in goal, and a stellar all-around effort from the whole team, the Scarlet Raptors evened their season record at 2-2 over the two-day span.
