The Lady Cavs opened the season with solid efforts but nothing to show for it in the win column.

The Lady Crusaders cut the lead to one when Hannah Dorsch scored her first of three goals in the game.
But the Lady Crusaders couldn’t get the tying goal before the Lady Cavs restored the lead to two on a goal by Lacie Doubet.
A pair of Alvernia goals separated by 38 seconds tied the score midway through the first half.
Doubet added two more goals in short order to give the Lady Cavs the lead back.
Nathalie Basunga would also score with 5:30 left in the half to cap the scoring.
At the break, the Lady Cavs were clinging to a two-goal lead.
But the Lady Cavs took play to another level in the second half. Doubet, Lasater and Basunga scored two more goals each while Melissa Scanzano scored a pair. The Lady Cavs out-scored Alvernia, 11-5, in the second half.
