One Goal in Each Half Gets W. Soccer Past Keuka, 2-0

KEUKA PARK, N.Y. – Rochester scored a goal in each half and controlled play throughout in posting a 2-0 victory over Keuka College in a steamy Wednesday evening away match.
 
First-year Carolyn Richards and junior Jamison Seabury were the Rochester goalscorers. Emma Schlecter picked up the win in goal. She played until the 83rd minute when she was relieved by Samantha Hlavac. Jessica Pegg made seven saves for Keuka.
 
UR (2-1) outshot the Wolves, 18-2 overall, and 9-2 in shots on target. The Yellowjackets created three corner kicks to none for the home side. Rochester was caught offside five times, Keuka flagged twice.

Head coach Sike Dardaganis was pleased with how his squad constructed each goal.

"On the first goal, Margaret Lee played the ball wide to Giuliana Vasile who touched it into first year, Carolyn  Richards, who was able to dribble past her defender and strike a ball from eighteen yards out into the far post for the first goal of her college career, " he said.

Different players were involved with the second goal - including the buildup. "Andrea Lopez received a ball from Kailee Sowers and passed it into Sophie Wolf who dribbled past the Keuka defense and into the penalty box," said the coach. "Wolf drew the keeper off her line before passing it to back post where Jamison Seabury raced on to the pass to score her first collegiate goal." 
 
In their opening matches before this, both teams were 1-1. Rochester defeated Stevenson University, 1-0, in the Stand on Their Shoulders Tournament at William Smith. UR lost to fourth-ranked Hardin Simmons University, 2-0,  in Saturday's game. The tournament was played in a classic format (pre-determined matchups).
 
Keuka won a high-scoring duel, 5-4 in overtime, over William Paterson College in the Hartwick Tournament. The Wolves lost to Hartwick, 1-0, in round two.
 
Pegg turned back five UR shots on goal in the first 26 minutes before the Yellowjackets broke through. The Seabury goal came in the 67th minute.
 
Rochester comes to Fauver Stadium on Saturday for its home opener – a 4 p.m. tilt against SUNY Geneseo.
