Women's Soccer Posts First Home Win Of the Season

Senior center back Madi Pastores set up the lone goal of the contest



Portland, Ore. – Lewis & Clark College women's soccer overpowered the visiting Whitman College Blues for their first home win of the season, to open up a Homecoming triple header.  
 
THE BASICS
Lewis & Clark 1, Whitman 0
(Lewis & Clark 4-5-3, NWC 4-3-2)
(Whitman 4-8-0, NWC 1-8-0)
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
 
The Pios put the pressure on the Blues from the opening kickoff. In the first 30 minutes of the game, Lewis and Clark College had a 7-0 shot advantage. Their best look to that point happened when senior Olivia Cowley booted the ball high in the air, and junior Celeste Schreifels ran into the box for the shot on goal. The Blues goalkeeper, Hanna Hagler, ran out to make a point-blank save. 
 
In the 38th minute of the game, senior Madi Pastores found freshman Megan Yanagi in the box. Yanagi bulled through a defender and chipped the on-rushing keeper from 14-yards out to put Lewis and Clark College on top. The score gave Pastores her first assist of the season and the second of her career. The Pios ended the half with ten more shots (12-2) than Whitman. 
 
The Pioneers continued to attack the goal in the second half. Senior Brecklyn Beighle made a twisting shot from 20 yards out that forced a full-extension save by Hagler in the 68th minute. Whitman's best attempt at tying the game came in the 78th minute when Lindsay Honart had two shots blocked by Pio defenders. Lewis and Clark junior keeper Sofia Young saved Lise Arrouye's shot on goal. The Blues had only two shots on goal for the game.  
 
BY THE NUMBERS
  • Today's win ended a three-game winless streak for the Pios. 
  • Yanagi has three goals for the season and leads the team in game-winners with two. 
  • Beighle's 30 shots this season lead the team, and she is number four on the Pios all-time list with 118 shots.
  • Young posted her 3rd shutout for the season and the 11th of her career, placing her third in the Pioneers' record book. 
  • The Pios have swept the Blues for the 2nd time in three years. They are now 5-0-1 against the Blues over the past three seasons.

The Pios look to sweep the weekend, when they return to the pitch at Griswold Stadium on Sunday at noon against Whitworth University.
