Eagles snap winless streak with 2-0 win

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – The University of Southern Indiana women's soccer team snapped a 16-match winless streak with a 2-0 victory over Bellarmine University Sunday afternoon at Strassweg Field. USI goes to 3-3-2 overall and 2-1-1 in the GLVC, while Bellarmine sees its record go to 4-3-1, 3-0-1 GLVC.
 
The Screaming Eagles' victory was the first over the Knights in women's soccer since the 2004 season. USI also broke a 403 minutes scoreless streak with the Knights, going back to 2014.
 
USI and Bellarmine went back-and-forth for the first 45 minutes without scoring. The Knights had a 7-1 lead in shots despite the Screaming Eagles pressuring the Bellarmine goal intermittently through the first half.
 
In the second half, the USI offense kicked into gear for the first time in the last six halves when freshman forward Madeline Weston (St. Peters, Missouri) scored to give the Eagles a 1-0 lead at 53:06. Senior forward Ryley Hancock (Evansville, Indiana) sent the ball into the box and rebounded out to Weston, who rocketed the ball into the back of the net for her second of the season.  
 
The Eagles would seal the victory four minutes later when freshman midfielder Lyndsee Monac (New Brighton, Pennsylvania) made the score, 2-0, at 57:08. Monac got her second goal of the year off a cross from freshman forward Katlyn Andres (Louisville, Kentucky).
 
Between the posts, senior goalkeeper Emily Hopkins (Greenfield, Indiana) posted her second-straight shutout and picked up her third win of the year. Hopkins faced 13 shots, making saves on all eight of the shots on-goal.  
 
The Eagles conclude the short two-match homestand Friday when they host the University of Illinois Springfield for a 5 p.m. match at Strassweg Field. USI leads the all-time series with the Prairie Stars, 7-0-2, since Illinois Springfield joined the GLVC in 2009. Illinois Springfield went to 1-5-2 overall, 1-3-0 in the GLVC, after falling on the road today to Lewis University, 1-0.
