BULLDOGS SHUTOUT COLONIALS ON LATE FIRST HALF GOAL, WIN
1-0 AT ROBERT MORRIS
Moon Township, Pa. - In the midst of a five game road trip,
Bryant senior Brianne Lustenring (Massapequa,
N.Y.) scored the game-winner late in the first half at
Robert Morris as the Bulldogs were able to hold off the Colonials
for their first shutout victory of the season on Sunday.
The Bulldogs (4-11-1, 2-5-1 NEC) played great defensively and
did just enough on the offensive end to earn the shutout victory
Sunday at Robert Morris (8-7-1, 4-3-1 NEC). In a game that was
moved to an 11 a.m. start, senior keeper Katie Mitchell
(Deer Park, N.Y.) recorded 9 saves in her first shutout of
the season.
In the 44th minute, Bulldog sophomore Amanda Worrall
(Hamilton Square, N.J.) sent a corner kick into the foot
of Lustenring who was able to one-time the ball into the near post
side of the net for the game's lone goal. The goal was the first of
the year for Lustenring and also the first assist of the year for
Worrall.
The Colonials outshot the Bulldogs 16-14 in the contest but
could not find the back of the net. Mitchell was able to stop two
key opportunities created by Colonial forward Ayana Davis to ensure
the shutout victory for her squad.
Bryant continues its stretch of five road games when they travel
to Long Island University to take on the Blackbirds on Friday,
October 30 at 6 p.m.
