Seniors Shine In Home Finale

All Five Seniors Score In 7-0 Win Over Lincoln

WILLIAMSVILLE, N.Y. - Daemen College scored four times in the first 23 minutes of the game en route to a 7-0 victory over Lincoln University here today in East Coast Conference women's soccer action. Daemen moved to 10-3-3 overall and 3-2-2 in the ECC. Lincoln, which joined the ECC as an associate member last year, dropped to 1-13-0 overall and 0-7-0 in the league. The game was played at Williamsville South High School Stadium due to unplayable field conditions at Karrer Field—Daemen's usual home field.

Today's game marked the final home game for seniors Jamie Boyar (Williamsville, N.Y.), Lindsay Ciaramella (St. George, Ont.), Erin Egan (Williamsville, N.Y.), Michelle Fiore (Tonawanda, N.Y.) and Sarah Kenny (Perth Australia). They were honored in a pre-game ceremony and they all went on to score a goal today.

Daemen entered the day tied for fifth place in the ECC standings. The top four teams in the final standings earn a bid to the ECC Championship Tournament. Daemen made its first ever appearance in the ECC Tournament last fall.


HIGHLIGHTS

  • Six different players scored for Daemen, which took a 5-0 lead into halftime.
  • Senior Egan registered her first career multi-goal game. She scored the two goals in a span of 1:08 midway through the first half to give the Wildcats a 4-0 lead.
  • Fiore scored her first career goal with just 3:32 left before halftime to give the hosts their 5-0 lead at the break.
  • The game remained 5-0 until the Wildcats struck for two goals in the span of 1:05 to take a 7-0 advantage. Ciaramella scored her third goal of the year at the 73:49 mark, and Kenny followed with her second of the year at 74:54.
  • Boyar, who registered a team-high seven shots on goal in the game, opened the scoring just 8:12 into the contest. It marked her team-leading 16th goal of the year.
  • Sophomore Grace Stranahan (Grand Island, N.Y.) gave Daemen a 2-0 lead at 17:54, before Egan struck for her two goals at 21:57 and 23:05.
  • Junior Maddie Flores (Seattle, Wash.) and freshman Tori DeLappi (Medina, Ohio) combined to make three saves for Daemen, which has now shutout its last three opponents. Senior Lena Rodriguez, who entered the game averaging a league-high 15 saves per game, stopped 21 shots for the Lions.


GAME NOTES

It marks the first time since transitioning to Division II that Daemen has been included in the official regional rankings which are used to determine NCAA tournament bids.
