The MIT Women’s Club Soccer team wrapped up their 2024 regular season with a 0-3 loss to Harvard and a 8-0 win against Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) on Saturday.
In their early game against Harvard on Briggs D, 17 mph winds made it hard to play the ball towards the direction of the parking lot in front of Tang Hall. Going against the wind in the first half, MIT quickly fell to a 0-3 deficit. Upon switching directions at halftime, MIT was able to finish the game without letting up another goal.
In their later game against SNHU on Roberts Field, the wind died down and the offense came to life. In a dominant showing, MIT scored 8 goals, including a haul (4 goals) by Corinne De La Mora (’27). Olivia Muñoz (’26), Layan Al Sharif (Grad), Maria Alder (’25), and Serra Tulu (’28) each also scored a goal in the win.
The team ends their season 6-1-1, third in the New England North Division behind Tufts (6-2-1) and Harvard (8-0-0). Despite their finishing position, MIT has qualified for a bid to Women’s Club Regionals. This year’s tournament will be held at Stony Brook University in Stony Brook, NY, on November 2-3.
