Box Score DULUTH, Minn. (csssaints.com) – The St. Scholastica women's soccer team scored eight goals in the second half on its way to a 12-0 victory over Martin Luther College on Saturday afternoon at Saints Field.
It took just 45 seconds for the Saints to get on the board as
Casey Mitchell (St. Cloud, Minn./St. Cloud Tech) scored her first of the day with an assist from
Claire Lubansky (Chaska, Minn./Chaska HS).
Kelsey Kehtel (Duluth, Minn./Duluth East HS) then scored in the 10th minute to make it 2-0.
Taylor Cunningham (Eau Claire, Wis./Eau Claire Memorial HS) assisted the goal.
Kehtel scored again in the 15th minute and
Shannon Carlson (Woodbury, Minn./Woodbury HS) added another in the 23rd minute to make the halftime score 4-0.
CSS did not let off the gas in the second half.
Andrea Beatt (Maple Grove, Minn./Maple Grove HS) got her first goal off of a
Logan Williamson (Bloomington, Minn./Jefferson HS) corner kick about three minutes into the second half.
Then after another corner kick, Beatt gathered the loose ball in the box and scored again in the 60th minute. Beatt would conclude the natural hat trick one minute and 50 seconds later to make it 7-0. For Beatt, that is her third hat trick of the season and her second in as many days.
After Beatt was done scoring, it was Mitchell's turn to put the ball in the back of the net, scoring three goals in the span of three minutes and 37 seconds, which is the fifth fastest by one player in NCAA Division III history. This also marked the second time this season that the Saints have had multiple hat tricks in one game.
Leah Hamm (Duluth, Minn./Duluth Denfeld HS) scored her first collegiate goal in the 82nd minute and
Leah Zimmermann (Crystal, Minn./Robbinsdale Cooper HS) capped the scoring in the 86th minute to make the final score 12-0.
Angie Toepper (Lino Lakes, Minn./Centennial HS) made just one save to earn her second shutout of the season. The Saints outshot Martin Luther 37-1 in the contest. The Knights fall to 4-6-0 overall and 3-3-0 in conference play.
The Saints (7-3-1, 6-1-0 UMAC) will be home just once in the month of October and begin road action next Saturday at Northland College. The kickoff is scheduled for 2:30 p.m.
