Box Score

Erie, PA- The Mercyhurst Women's Soccer team capped off another solid week, winning their second game of the week, outscoring UPJ 4-0. The team improves their record to 8-1 and remains one of the top contenders in the conference.  

How it Happened:  

The scoring got under way thanks to a left footed bullet from Corinne Morgan. After a slow start, Morgan found some space with a little over fifteen minutes to play in the first half. With two defenders to beat, Morgan used her plus speed to create some distance and launched a bullet to beat the UPJ keeper.  

Morgan's wheels helped the Lakers tack on another goal with under ten minutes left in the half. Morgan shook a defender on the near side of the field and crossed a perfect ball which found Paulina Harr. Harr converted the pass for her first goal of the season and to give Mercyhurst a 2-0 lead.  

It didn't take the Lakers long to add to their lead in the second half. Less than three minutes into the half, Anna Clarke took a corner and found Emily Neenan for a header to make it 3-0.  

Mercyhurst didn't stop there. Off a throw in, Rebecka Habursky beat a UPJ defender and unleashed a missile that found the back of the net. Habursky's second of the year, extended the Laker lead to 4-0.  

Highlights:  

Corinne Morgan filled the stat sheet today by recording her 4th goal of the year, along with her 4th assist. Paulina Harr and Emily Neenan scored their first goals of the season as well, while Anna Clarke added an assist to her season stat line. 

Rebecka Habursky secured her second goal of the year, while Maddie Elbro tallied her 7th shutout of the season
