It was the highest-ranked win in program history for Seattle U. It beats the 2-1 win vs. No. 10 Washington in 2015. And its the Redhawks’ first win against a ranked team since 2018, which also came against Washington.

“This was a historic win for the program,” Seattle coach Pete Fewing said. “Notre Dame is a class act and had their chances in this match.”

After a goalless half, Declan McGlynn scored twice for the Redhawks, which broke the program record for career points.

Habib Barry also scored for the Redhawks off an assist from Peter Kingston in the 78th minute to put the game away.

Notre Dame got its only goal in the 81st minute

McGlynn has 70 career points passing the 65 from Sergio Rivas. McGlynn is in second place in career goals with 26.
