Big first half enough
The Colorado School of Mines women’s soccer team scored four first-half goals on its way to a convincing 4-0 win over UC-Colorado Springs in RMAC action on Sunday afternoon at the CSM Soccer Stadium.
Mines broke through in the 26th minute when Dani Hering played a ball far post that looked like it was on its way out of bounds when Erin Onat back heeled the ball in to give CSM the lead.
Onat struck again just a minute later this time with perfectly struck ball from just outside the box on the left side placed inside the far post in the top corner for her fourth goal of the season. Megan Woodworth would notch the assist on the goal.
Ten minutes would pass before another goal but two more came and they came quickly. Woodworth tallied her third goal of the year on a cross in from Aubrey Bagley in the 37th minute.
Just one minute and 24 seconds later Becca Morales collected a ball from Woodworth and slotted it under a diving UCCS goalkeeper. The goal was Morales first of the season, Woodworth’s second assist of the game and sixth on the season.
CSM goalkeepers Penny Rogers and Amy Hegarty helped keep a clean sheet as the Oredigger back four recorded their fourth shutout of the season. Rogers recorded four saves in 75:25 minutes in goal.
Next Up: The 20th-ranked Orediggers (6-0, 2-0 RMAC) will host Colorado Christian on Wednesday at 7 p.m. and 11th-ranked Metro State on Friday at 7:30 p.m.
