Defense and goaltending have been St. Joseph's calling card this season and the numbers are very impressive.
The St. Joe's women's soccer team have been defending their home turf this season, but defense has not been a problem anywhere for the Golden Eagles.
St. Joe's is an impressive 5-1-1 at home on the year, but the defensive numbers paint an even more impressive picture. St. Joe's have played a total of 12 games this season. In those 12 contests, they have six shutouts. It gets even better though as they also have held 11 of those 12 opponents to a single goal or less.
Goalie Kristin Vahle has been electric in goal. The Farmingville junior has 32 saves this season and has only allowed 7 total goals. This is after a great 2023 where she had a team-high 52 saves and led the conference with a .950 goals against average.
