ASTON, PA – The Cabrini women's soccer team earned a hard fought 1-0 victory today at Neumann University to stay perfect in Colonial States Athletic Conference play.
The Cavaliers' fourth consecutive win improved the club to 4-5 overall and 3-0 in the CSAC. The victory also extended the Blue and White's conference unbeaten streak to 41 matches.
After a scoreless opening 45 minutes, the Cavaliers turned up their offensive pressure, outshooting the Knights 10-3 after the break.
Cabrini's pressure finally paid off in the 57th minute, as junior
Taylor Tralie's corner kick service found senior
Allie Vallen for the day's lone goal.
Both teams created late scoring chances, including two of the Knights' three second half shots coming in the final seven minutes. The Blue and White held its ground, including defending a corner kick in the 90th minute.
Vallen recorded five of Cabrini's 24 shots, while Tralie and freshman
Diana VanSickle added three each.
Junior goaltender
Gabby LeGendre recorded four saves to secure her second consecutive shutout.
The Cavaliers will return to action on Tuesday, as they travel north to La Plume, PA to face Keystone College (4-3-1, 2-1 CSAC). Kickoff is scheduled for 4pm.
