UMaine Women's Soccer Announces 2016 Schedule

Full Schedule

Orono, Maine -- University of Maine head women's soccer coach Scott Atherley announced his program's 2016 game schedule on Friday, July 1. Maine will host five regular season home games as well as a neutral site contest in Saco, Maine, in the upcoming season as it looks to improve on its America East semifinal finish a year ago.

"Our 2016 schedule is balanced," said Atherley. "Most of our non-conference opponents are quite familiar to us and each will present unique challenges as we ready ourselves for conference play. With half our rosters comprised of new players, we managed to avoid playing mid-week games. We also built in a small break between our non-conference and America East games. I anticipate we will welcome having the opportunity to reflect, revisit and regenerate as we head into the home stretch of our season. I am really looking forward to watching our team grow and develop over the course of the season."

The future looks strong for Atherley's squad, which returns 12 letterwinners and welcomes 12 newcomers to a team that finished 9-8-2 overall and 4-3-1 in America East play, good for fourth place. Maine returns two of its top three scorers in America East Rookie of the Year Vivien Beil (3 goals, 5 assists) and America East All-Rookie selection Anetra Byfield (4 goals). The Black Bears were impressive at home, finishing 2015 with a 7-1-1 record on its home turf.

Thomas College Field Hockey Releases 2016 Schedule

WATERVILLE, ME --- Thomas College Head Field Hockey Coach Andrea Thebarge has announced the team's 2016 schedule, one which features three NCAA qualifiers from a year ago.

Thomas finished 8-9 overall last season and went 4-1 in North Atlantic Conference play before falling to UMaine-Farmington, 2-1, in the NAC Tournament semifinals.

The Terriers open with five consecutive road contests - beginning the season at Southern Maine on Sept. 1 before weekend games at Nichols (Sept. 3) and Bridgewater State (Sept. 4) and trips to crosstown rival Colby on Sept. 7 and defending Great Northeast Athletic Conference champion Simmons on Sept. 10.

Thomas is then idle for a week before opening up the home slate by hosting 2015 NEWMAC tournament champion Mount Holyoke on Saturday, Sept. 17. Mount Holyoke finished last season receiving votes in the NFHCA national poll. Bates makes the trek up I-95 for a midweek game on Wednesday, Sept. 21, before the Terriers open NAC play at defending league champion Husson on Saturday, Sept. 25.

A trio of nonconference home contests are woven into the league slate, starting with a visit by Kean University on Sept. 25. It will be the first meeting between the Terriers and the Cougars out of Union, N.J., and the New Jersey Athletic Conference. Road league dates at New England College (Oct. 1) and Colby-Sawyer (Oct. 8) sandwich a home date with GNAC stalwart Saint Joseph's (Maine) on Oct. 4.

The schedule closes with three straight home games as UMaine-Farmington (Oct. 15) and Castleton (Oct. 22) visit Bernatchez Field for NAC contests, Plymouth State steps out of Little East Conference play to make a midweek trip on Wednesday, Oct. 19.

The UMaine-Farmington contest kicks off a Homecoming/Family Weekend tripleheader, while the Castleton game kicks off another field hockey/soccer tripleheader and will be preceded by the program's annual Senior Day festivities.

The NAC Semifinals take place on Oct. 26, with the NAC Championship three days later at the highest remaining seed.
