Megan Angstadt '09 scored a goal and had an assist. |
Elizabethtown scored all three of its goals in the first half. Etown got its first goal at 18:18 into the game, after a shot by Blue Jays senior midfielder Laura Rinck (Selinsgrove, PA/Selinsgrove Area) was saved by Muhlenberg goaltender Lauren Schram. Schram was not able to control the ricochet, which bounced back to Etown sophomore forward Andrea Miles (Phoenix, MD/Notre Dame Prep.). Miles then netted the ball for the first goal of her collegiate career.
Megan Angstadt (Oley, PA/Oley Valley) put Etown up 2-0 at 22:44 when she scored her second goal in two days off another rebound in front of the Muhlenberg net. Etown’s final goal came at 31:53 when Miles scored again on an Angstadt pass in front of the net.
Elizabethtown goalie Kristen Callaghan (Langhorne, PA/Neshaminy) needed to make just one save, her first of the season, to earn her second shutout in as many games. Also helping to preserve the Etown shutout with a defensive save was Andrea Marsala (Dallastown, PA/Dallastown). Schram made 10 saves for Muhlenberg.
Elizabethtown will return to action on the road Wednesday, September 6 against Franklin & Marshall College in a 4:30 p.m. non-conference game.
