A sophomore forward from Vaudreuil-Dorion, Quebec in Canada, Kristina Syragakis scored three goals and recorded an assist in two wins last week for Francis Marion.
Syragakis opened last week by scoring the tying goal and then assisting on the match-winning goal in Francis Marion’s come-from-behind 3-1 win over Shaw in Durham, North Carolina on Sept. 6. She followed that up by scoring both goals in Francis Marion’s 2-1 win over Erskine at home on Sept. 9.
In the win over Erskine, Syragakis first scored on a penalty kick in the 49th minute. She netted the match-winning goal with just 1:52 left in the match from seven yards out. Francis Marion has now won six consecutive matches dating back to last season and the team is off to its best start since 2000 at 3-0-0.
Syragakis is currently second in Conference Carolinas in goals (five) and points (11).
