No. 5 Syracuse (1-0) started its 2020 season with a 21-14 victory over Colgate (0-2) on Friday afternoon, headlined by Chase Scanlan’s seven goals in his SU debut. The Loyola transfer took 12 of the Orange’s 65 shots — the first glimpse at new offensive coordinator Pat March’s offense — and help Syracuse avoid a second consecutive upset at the hands of the Raiders to open a season.
