CLEVELAND - The IU Indianapolis women's soccer team will hit the road for a pair of Horizon League matches this week as the Jaguars will take on Cleveland State on Thursday (Oct. 1) and Purdue Fort Wayne on Sunday (Oct. 4). Head coach
Angela Berry White's team is coming off a come-from-behind 3-2 win over Northern Kentucky in its most recent outing in collecting its first Horizon League win of the season.
Junior
Annaliese Black staked the Jaguars to an early 1-0 lead and after yielding a pair of scores,
Caroline Kelley and
Taylor Townley scored after halftime to fuel the win. Black owns a team-high 10 points (3 goals, 4 assists) while fellow junior
Keilah Muldrow has scored a team-high four goals. Sophomore
Maci Sammons is tied with Black for a team-high four assists and junior
Bethany Hartigan leads the field players in minutes played with 936 in the defensive third. In goal, sophomore
Isabel Oferosky leads the team with eight appearances and has a 2-0-1 record with a 1.60 goals against average.
QUOTABLE
"We can share the ball. We're not dependent on one player, one time. I mean, we're missing players today that couldn't play past a certain time limit. Everybody knew that somebody else had to carry the torch, and that's what they did. We can't be predictable by having a No. 1 scorer and No. 2 scorer. Everybody wants to share the ball," White said following the NKU win.
