MORRISVILLE, N.Y. – A late second half surge for Morrisville women's soccer helped lead the Mustangs to a 3-2 non-conference win over Hilbert on Wednesday afternoon. Morrisville was led by their freshmen class, with all three goals scored by first year players, behind first-year goalkeeper, Melanie Rott (Niagara Falls, NY) who made her debut between the pipes.

  • The Mustangs took eleven first half shots and six corner kicks in the first 45' minutes of action, but still were unable to even the score, heading into halftime down a score.
  • Morrisville's Jozlyn Dolan would even the score at 46:28, notching her second goal of the season. Dolan one-timed a shot with her left foot to convert on a great cross from sophomore, Ashley Tette (Rochester, NY).

  • Brianne Barnes (Waterville, NY) would go on to score the game winning goal with less than 5' minutes to play in the game. Rachel Davis (La Fargeville, NY) chipped the ball up field to Barnes who gained control and went on a breakaway to rip a shot past Hawk's keeper, Tahlia Kosek.
  • The Mustangs controlled much of the offense, taking 12 shots on goal to Hilbert's 4, while holding a 7-0 advantage in corners.
