PLYMOUTH, N.H. - The New England College women's soccer team experienced a 7-0 loss as they traveled out towards Plymouth, New Hampshire for a non-conference matchup against the Panthers of Plymouth State University at Arold Field on Friday.
THE BASICS
Score: New England College 0, Plymouth State University 7
Records: Pilgrims 0-1, 0-0 GNAC | Panther 1-0, 0-0 LEC
HOW IT HAPPENED
- At around the 34th minute of action junior goalkeeper Hollie Bomba (Seymour, Conn.) was faced with a one on one situation that went according to plan at the start of the sequence as she managed to deflect the first two shots that came her way from the Panthers sophomore forward Ella Fraser (Nottingham, N.H.) with her third and final shot of that phase to find its way into the back of the net to get things started early on their end.
- From there on out PSU did not let their foot off the gas as they continued to fire on all cylinders scoring six straight goals claiming the win over the 'Grims in convincing fashion.
INSIDE THE NUMBERS
- NEC senior forward Shelby McBain (Indianhead, Md.) did all she could for the 'Grims leading the team in shots accounting for four having two find themselves on target.
- PSU Fraser, graduate defender Abbey Johnson (Orlando, Fla.), junior forward Molly Bellmore (Hebron, Conn.), and junior midfielder Olivia Howard (Berwick, Maine) made their presence known on the field by contributing to the goal scoring. Fraser shined the brightest for the Panthers as she finished with two goals and an assist to bestow her with five points.
- NEC Bomba concluded her day at the pitch with three saves.
