CARSON, Calif.-Cal State Dominguez Hills' Lecia
Davis (N. Torrance HS) scored two goals today to lead the Toros to
a 3-1 non-conference victory over visiting Cal Baptist University
at Toro Field.
CSUDH had to come from behind though as they
found themselves on the short end of a 1-0 score early. CBU's
Jenny Stolle scored in the 2nd minute of play when she took a pass
over the Toros defense from Lisa Muench. Stolle caught goalie Alba
Garcia (Don Lugo HS) off her line and chipped her shot to the far
post.
Cal State Dominguez Hills tallied the
equalizing goal, however, right before halftime. Shannon Donnelly
(LB Poly HS) scored her third goal of the season when she took a
long pass off a free kick from Erin Fieger (Mira Costa HS) at the
43:33-minute mark. Donnelly gathered the ball and slipped it to
the near post making it 1-1.
Davis then gave the Toros a 2-1 lead two
minutes into the second period. At 47:15, Davis knocked in the
game-winner when she took a flick pass from Norma Gutierrez (Santa
Clara HS) and headed the ball to the back of the net over a drawn
out goalie from 10-yards out.
Ten minutes later, Davis scored her second goal
of the contest accounting for the final 3-1 margin. Fieger sent a
long ball inside the box to Garza, who then crossed the ball to
Davis. Davis' shot went right to the Lancer goalie Ashley
Montgomery, but it slipped her hands and through her legs for the
score.
In the game, the Toros out-shot CBU (4-2) 20-6.
Garcia wins her fourth game of the year making two saves in goal.
For Cal Baptist, Montgomery took the loss allowing both goals in
the second half.
CSUDH (9-2-1), who came into the game ranked
No. 25 in the latest NSCAA polls, returns to action next Friday,
Oct. 5 travelling to CCAA foe San Francisco State. Kick off is set
for 4:00 pm. |
