Box Score MILWAUKEE – Coming off a hard-fought battle and close loss to UW-La Crosse on Sunday, MSOE women's soccer was looking to rebound when they welcomed rival Concordia Wisconsin to Viets Field. The light shone bright for the Raiders in their spotlight game, and they made the most of the extra energy by downing the Falcons 4-1 on Wednesday night.
RESULT
Concordia Wisconsin – 1
MSOE RAIDERS – 4
HOW IT HAPPENED
- Just like they did on Sunday, MSOE (9-2-3, 6-0-1 NACC) quickly scored the first goal of the game when Addison Spilman took advantage of a bad play from the Concordia Wisconsin (8-2-2, 5-1-1 NACC) keeper and gave the Raiders the 1-0 lead after just 4:29.
- Nicole Robb would then give the Red & White a two-goal advantage when she buried a penalty kick for her eighth goal of the season just two and a half minutes before the intermission.
- The Falcons managed to cut the MSOE lead in half early in the second frame but that never proved to be a concern.
- Robb assisted on a McKayla Zastrow goal in the 70th minute and Faith Papazoglou and Spilman were credited with helpers on Elizabeth Kuhn's goal shortly thereafter to seal the deal on the Raiders 4-1 victory.
RAIDER REMARKS
- The Raiders have had the Falcons number as of late having won three out of the last four contests between the two teams.
- Nicole Robb is 3-for-3 on the penalty kick this season and her five game winning goals this year is tied for third most in a single campaign.
