NEWARK, N.J. – A second-half goal by sophomore defender Sloane Lipshie (Port Jefferson Station, N.Y./Comsewogue) proved to be enough for the State University of New York at New Paltz women's soccer team, as the Hawks defeated Brooklyn College, 1-0, on the opening day of the Scarlet Raider Soccer Classic, hosted by Rutgers University-Newark.
 
The Hawks (3-0) take on the host Scarlet Raiders tomorrow at 4 p.m., while the Bulldogs (0-3) play Frostburg State at 1 p.m.
