SCHENECTADY, N.Y. – The #22 Dutchwomen soccer team used four goals from four different student-athletes to produce a 4-0 victory against Rutgers-Newark at the Union College Soccer Invitational on Sunday. With the win Union improves to 2-0-0, while Rutgers-Newark goes to 0-2-0.

Sophomore forward Katie McLean set up the two goals sandwiched between Cuozzo and Wilson's tallies. She gave sophomore midfielder Caitlin O'Donnell a one-timer just inside the box at 22:18. Her second assist was at 26:37 when her shot attempt eventually found senior midfielder Chelsea Hargis (East Lyme, CT).

 

Junior Melissa McDonald (Lynnfield, MA) and sophomore Abby Stohler (West Hartford, CT) shared duties between the pipes. McDonald played the first half and went untested, while Stohler took over in the second and made two saves, including a tester during the 65^th minute.

 

Rutgers-Newark also used two goalkeepers – the freshman duo of Kayla Wakstein and Kat Renteria produced five saves.

 

Union controlled the advantage in corner kicks (7-0), shots (19-5) and shots on goal (10-2).
