CU Women's Soccer Preview - at SUNY Potsdam (9/4)

In two games over the weekend, the Clarkson University Women's Soccer team displayed both an ability to score and a penchant for top-notch defense, and the Golden Knights hope that both will continue on Tuesday when they go against crosstown-rival SUNY Potsdam.
