Away
Deerfield Academy
Loss 1-3
The Rhinos traveled to Deerfield Academy on Wednesday afternoon and came away with a 1-3 loss. Taft got on the board early after some great attacking play. Marion Ayeh '25 ran in 1v1 with the Deerfield goalkeeper before the rebound found the feet of Elle McCauley '25, who calmly slotted the ball into the top corner. The Rhinos found themselves quickly behind, conceding two goals in quick succession. Pushing late in the first half, the Rhinos had clear opportunities to take the lead, but were unable to do so. The second half saw more chances by the Rhinos, most noticeably, chances by Marion Ayeh '25 and Faith Graziano '24 that were inches away from tying the match. Late on, as the Rhinos were pushing forward for the equalizer, Deerfield was able to capitalize on a free kick to effectively end the match. Next match is 10/2 at home vs. Loomis Chaffee.
