No. 12 Women's Soccer Posts Convincing 4-0 Win at San Francisco

Box Score SAN FRANCISCO – West Coast Conference play opened for No. 12 Santa Clara women's soccer with a commanding 4-0 win at San Francisco. The Broncos (7-2-1 1-0 WCC) got on the board right away and kept the pressure on while preventing any truly dangerous chances for the Dons (4-5-1, 0-1-1 WCC) offense.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED:
  • Santa Clara got the scoring going right away with a tally in the second minute. Colby Barnett did her thing down the left wing and sent a cross that found the head of Addie Whitehouse who knocked it inside the left post.
  • Whitehouse made it a brace in the 32nd. Sally Menti took a corner and sent a pretty ball into the six-yard box that Whitehouse was able to knock in with her right foot.
  • Back where she spent the previous four season, Marissa Vasquez scored the third goal of the match in the 51st. A handball from 25-yards out was called and Vasquez took the kick. Her shot skipped on the turf and past the goalkeeper.
  • Kennedy Schoennauer made it a 4-0 lead in the 82nd. A long shot from Marisa Bubnis after a corner was sent away was saved but Schoennauer was right there for the rebound.
 
NOTABLE NUMBERS:
  • Santa Clara outshot San Francisco 13-6 including 8-1 in shots on target. The Broncos also earned five corners to two for the Dons.
  • Marlee Nicolos made one save and shared the shutout with Lauren Zontos who played the final six and a half minutes in net. Kira Ybarra made four saves for the Dons.
  • Menti, Barnett, and Bubnis all had assists.
  • Caroline Gray and Mana Hayashi both returned to action. Gray had missed time with an injury while Hayashi was away at the U20 World Cup with team Japan.
