Arizona State Hands Women’s Soccer 3–0 Defeat To Close Western Trip

TEMPE, Ariz. - The University of Pennsylvania women's soccer team ended its Arizona road trip with a 3-0 loss at Arizona State Sunday afternoon at Sun Devil Soccer Stadium.

The Quakers fell to 0-3-1 while the Sun Devils stayed unbeaten, improving to 4-0-2.
 
Quaker Notemeal
*Sophomore transfer Edie Priest made her first start of the season against her former squad, playing 69 minutes against the Sun Devils.

*Maya Leschly and Eden Veenema each clocked a full 90 minutes on the pitch.

*Mia Fuss led the Quakers with three shots on goal over three opportunities.
 
*Junior goalkeeper Annabel Austen finished with four saves in net.

*ASU's Kierra Blundell recorded a hat trick for the Sun Devils, scoring twice in the first half and adding a third goal in the 69th minute.

How it Happened
The Quakers began the first half with one shot on goal from Fuss, picking up where she left off after putting up six shots in the previous match at Northern Arizona on Thursday night.

 Blundell opened the scoring for Arizona State with a second-chance unassisted goal after the ball ricocheted off the top end of the goalpost. Just three minutes later, a Penn foul in the box led to the second tally of the night for Blundell, as she converted from the spot for the penalty-kick strike.

Following a 2-0 deficit after the first 45 minutes of play, Penn's Leah Finkelman attempted the first shot of the second half. However, in the 69th minute of play Blundell finished off her hat trick to extend the Sun Devils' lead.

Fuss added two more shots on goal followed by a shot each for seniors Megan Lusher and Isobel Glass, but the Quakers were left off the scoresheet for the match.
