Midway through the 2021 season, No. 2 Syracuse sits at 6-1 with its only defeat coming in a thrashing at the hands of No. 1 North Carolina on Saturday. All-American Emily Hawryschuk suffered a season-ending ACL injury one game into the season, but the Orange have since won five of their last six games.
Head coach Gary Gait’s team has notched double-digit wins over then-No. 5 Loyola, then-No. 5 Stony Brook and then-No. 11 Duke. SU added a sweep in a two-game series over No. 4 Notre Dame, too.
