Lesley Halts Eagles Win Streak, 4-0
Courtesy Lesley Sports Information
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – In a contest between New England Collegiate Conference
opponents, the Lesley University women’s soccer team defeated Daniel Webster
4-0 behind three goals from junior Jodi Fralick (Woburn, Mass.). The Lynx
improved to 7-0-1 (2-0-0 NECC) while the Eagles dropped to 3-3-0 (2-1-0
NECC).
Fralick would score her first goal of the game almost 24 minutes into first
half as she found the back of the net unassisted. It was the only goal of
the half as the Lynx went into halftime up 1-0.
The Lynx offense broke the game open in the second half after Fralick headed
her second goal of the game past Eagles keeper Amy Waller (Berlin, Mass.)
off a corner kick from teammate Alyson Durben (Stow, Mass.).
Durben would score Lesley’s third goal less than ten minutes later off a
cross that deflected off a Daniel Webster defender. The score was Durben’s
sixth goal of the season.
In the 68th minute, Fralick completed the hat trick after Waller made a
spectacular save on her initial attack. Fralick now leads the Lynx with 15
goals on the season.
Daniel Webster’s best opportunity to score came in the second half when
freshman back TC DiSantis (Hinsdale, Mass.) shot the ball from near midfield
that ricocheted off the crossbar and into the keeper’s hands.
Defensively for the Eagles, Waller gave up four goals but also made nine
saves.
Lesley will be off until Saturday, September 27 for a home match against
Wheelock College while Daniel Webster will visit Pine Manor College on the
same day.
