The game against Georgetown saw five different Huskies score to help the team extend its streak. Jen Kleinhans started the team off strong with a goal coming in the first ten minutes and Nikki Harmony and Kristin Galuski also connected in the first half. Aird and Meghan Wheeler helped the team increase the lead to four.
"If you have a 30-goal player, it's easy to shut her down," Stevens said. "It's nice to have balance on offense."
Several players agreed with Stevens.
"It shows you can score," said Meagan Hoffmann. "You know you have 11 players on the field that can do it."
"It's great to have more than one person scoring," Harmony said. "Not all of the pressure is on one person. I'm excited for the team. It was a big win against Princeton and Georgetown. We're now 2-1 in the Big East."
During the winning streak, Aird said the team has become closer and things are going well.
"The chemistry is really good," she said. "We're coming together. We have to shoot it up."
"Everything's going great," Hoffmann said. "We have to keep up the work."
"We have big goals," Harmony said. "We're looking to continue winning. Last weekend was a big win and we have to carry that into the other games."
