WOMEN'S SOCCER DEFEATS FREDERICK
September 25, 2007 -
On a warm, sunny fall afternoon, the CSM
women's soccer team defeated Frederick 4-2. Alison Pancotti had a hand
in all four Hawk goals, scoring twice and assisting on the other two Hawk
goals.
CSM dominated play for most of the game, pressing the attack into the
Frederick end, outshooting the Cougars 16-4 in the first half, and 28-5 for
the game.
Some brilliant goalkeeping by Cougar goalkeeper Mary Leatherman kept
Frederick in the game, as she made several outstanding saves to keep the
game scoreless for the first 30:00 of the game.
Allison Pancotti finally broke the scoring drought, hitting a perfectly
placed high arching shot over Leatherman from 10 feet out, after Ashley
Simone's corner kick, to put CSM up 1-0.
Less then three minutes later Pancotti gave the Hawks a 2-0 lead, as she
received a pass from Colleen Loux and drilled a shot from 14 feet out.
CSM went up 3-0 with 11:22 left in the half as Pancotti's long centering
pass from the side found Melinda Carty open in front of the left post, and
Carty booted the ball home.
Frederick (3-3, 0-2) got on the scoreboard with 8:21 to play, when Katie
Seiforth scored after receiving a centering pass from Becky Spates, to make
the score 3-1 at the half.
CSM (5-2, 3-1) would have several scoring chances in the second half, but
could only net one goal. Ashley Simone found net with 32:51 to play
after receiving a crossing pass from Alison Pancotti, to give CSM a 4-1
lead.
Ashley Polvi-Cross scored for the Cougars after receiving a pass from Katie
Seiforth for the final 4-2 margin.
The Hawks are off until next week, when they travel to Harford on Tuesday,
Oct. 2, for another key MDJUCO contest.
