ANGELO
STATE DROPS PIONEERS 0-3 IN SOCCER
SAN
ANGELO, Tex.—Angelo
State (7-6-0, 1-2-0) scored three goals in the first half
and
staved off three scoring opportunities by TWU (1-8-2, 0-3-1)
in the second period to win the game, 3-0. The Pioneers
totaled just five shots during the
game with two coming from Emily Meinen (Keller,
TX/Keller HS).
"The team played better today, but Angelo State scored on a couple of break-aways
and we could not answer back," head coach Fleur Benatar said. "We shut
them down in the second half and had a couple of good opportunities to score,
but nothing went through. This game was a lot closer than the score showed."
The
Rambelles poured the pressure on TWU in the first half with
starting goalkeeper Stephanie
Stein (Trophy Club, TX/Northwest H.S.) facing 12 shots. Shana Brown
put ASU on the board in the 27th minute when she scored on a through pass from
Whitney Coberly. Roughly eight minutes later, Erica McNutt gave the Rambelles
a 0-2 lead when she scored from a lob pass from Ashley Brezovsky. ASU was not
done as Laura Cannon scored in the 41st minute, giving them a commanding 0-3
lead going into intermission. Stein recorded the loss, moving her record to
0-4-2 on the season with five saves and three goals allowed.
TWU
recorded three shots in the second period, but none of them
found the back of the net. Sara Weaver (Prosper,
TX/Prosper H.S.) came
in to replace Stein in goal in the second half, shutting out ASU with one
save on six shots faced. The Pioneers were flagged with 15 fouls and had
one corner kick opportunity.
Up
next, the Pioneers travel to Weatherford, Okla. to face
Southwestern Oklahoma on Tuesday, Oct. 14 at 4 p.m. They
return home on Friday and
Sunday as they host Northeastern State at 2 p.m. on Oct. 17 and East
Central at 2 p.m. on Oct. 19.
