University of Rochester senior defender Abbey Smith helped anchor a Yellowjacket defense that held 15th-ranked St. John Fisher to just nine goals en route to the program’s first win over a ranked opponent since 2003. Defensively, Smith scooped up three ground balls and caused a pair of turnovers, while helping hold a Cardinal offense that averaged nearly 13.5 goals and 31.5 shots per game last season to just nine goals and 17 total shots in Rochester’s 10-9, upset victory on Friday evening.
