INDIANAPOLIS - The IUPUI women's soccer team scored a season-high four goals, including three in the second half, as the Jaguars rolled to a 4-1 win over Lipscomb at Kuntz Stadium on Sunday afternoon. The victory ran IUPUI's winning streak to six straight, matching the longest string in the program's history.

Sophomore Alicia Brock recorded her second career multi-goal game and the Jags scored twice in a 35 second stretch early in the second half to break open a 1-1 game.

"It feels good," Brock said.  "We worked hard all week for this. (Lipscomb) came out really flat in the back, so we knew we needed to play it behind them to get goals today."

After struggling to find an offensive rhythm early, Brock finally put IUPUI (6-2-0) on the board with just over a minute left before halftime, setup by a lead pass from Katrina McCrory. McCrory threaded the needle to a sprinting Brock, who was able to cut the ball back to her left before rolling a left-footed shot inside the far post past Lipscomb keeper Ally Marler.

Lipscomb (2-6-0) came off the mat in the 59th minute when Katie Wood knocked a loose ball off an IUPUI defender and past reserve goalkeeper Maeghan Parks for her first goal of the season.

From there, the IUPUI attack took control of the match, fueled by two scores in the 62nd minute.

The first came when Megan Hock launched a long throw-in to freshman Lisa Thomas, just inside the 18-yard box. Thomas one touched it to McCrory, who blazed a shot into the upper left-hand corner of the net for her second tally of the season. Moments later, Hock carried the ball up the left side of the field before rolling a cross through the six-yard box. Brock was on the receiving end of that feed and buried her third goal of the year from point blank range.

The assists were Hock's first two of the year while Thomas delivered her team-high fourth assist of the season.

Junior Cara Hartman capped IUPUI's scoring in the final minute when she got loose behind the Lipscomb defensive backfield by virtue of Kelli Parks' long lead pass. From there, Hartman carried to the middle of the field where she maneuvered past Marler and a retreating Lipscomb defender before scoring in the empty net for her second score of the year.

IUPUI outshot Lipscomb 18-10 and 11-7 on goal. The Jaguars also had a decisive 8-1 advantage on corner kicks. McCrory led all players with four attempts and Stacy Levack attempted three, putting two on frame.

Six different IUPUI players were awarded their first starts of the season on Sunday after the Jags played 110 minutes at Eastern Michigan on Friday. In all, 21 players saw action against Lipscomb.

"I thought our kids had a very difficult, physical game on Friday, so we wanted to kind of rest a few kids," Head Coach Chris Johnson said. "Our kids came out strong and hard - it just took us a little time to get going today.

"The girls are taking the challenges one game at a time. We're bringing better energy level to each game."

Defensively, senior Jamie Farrell made two saves in a scoreless first half and Parks earned her first career win in net, making three stops in the final 45 minutes. Junior Kelly Williams also cleared a ball off the back line for a team save in the second half.

IUPUI returns to action on Friday when it hosts Cleveland State at Kuntz Stadium at 7:00 p.m..
