Box Score

The Youngstown State women's soccer team won its third straight match and improved to 3-2 with a 5-0 win over Malone on Friday evening at Farmers National Bank Field.

The Penguins controlled the game from the outset and took 38 shots, which are the second-most in a single-match in school history. The school record of 53 was set against Delaware State in 2003.

With the loss, Malone falls to 1-1 on the year.

The five goals are the most scored in a single match during the Will Lemke era and the most since 2003 when the Penguins defeated Delaware State, 17-0.

Five different players scored goals for the Penguins while freshman Kyler Lum collected two of the squad's four assists.

Senior Chelsey Haney scored her first goal of the season at the 19:24 mark to give the Penguins a 1-0 lead. Senior Brittany Tenis threaded a long pass through the Pioneers' defense and led Haney to a one-on-one with the Malone goalkeeper. Haney found the bottom-left corner of the goal for the score.

Just before halftime, Macey Riese's header from a corner kick from Lum pushed the Penguins' lead to 2-0 with 1:09 left before the intermission.

Freshman Sydney Riddle lifted a cross into the box and sophomore Kathy Baquero's header extended the Penguins advantage to 3-0 in the 49th minute.

Ten minutes later, Abby Kenski scored her first career goal from Lum's second assist and gave YSU a 4-0 lead.

Sophomore Samantha Vaughan posted her first career goal in the 81st minute to end the scoring.

The Penguins defense allowed just two shots and one shot on goal, while the offense took 12 corner kicks to Malone's zero.

The Penguins host Big Ten member Purdue, Sunday, at Farmers National Bank Field. Kickoff is set for Noon.
