DeROSA NETS RECORD FIVE GOALS AS KING'S WOMEN'S
SOCCER DOWNS KEYSTONE, 9-1
LaPlume -- Meghan DeRosa set a single-game school
record with five goals as the King's College women's soccer team posted a
9-1 victory over host Keystone College Thursday in LaPlume.
With the win,
the Lady Monarchs won their second straight game while improving to 2-5.
Keystone, meanwhile, fell to 0-4.
King's took a 1-0 lead when DeRosa drilled in a shot
from 18 yards out off an assist from Jen Bem just six minutes into the
game. Keystone would tie the score five minutes later when Amanda Dawson
scored on a breakaway.
DeRosa then scored two of the next three Lady
Monarch goals, while Jenny Lampman also struck net to give King's a
comfortable 4-0 halftime lead.
In the second half, DeRosa would score on a penalty kick 8:11 into the
final stanza before Megan Borger would score with 26:17 left in the game.
DeRosa would then convert her final goal with 20:32 remaining to push the
King's advantage to 7-1.
With just 1:30 remaining, Lori Stuart would add
another King's goal before Maria Bustin netted a breakaway goal with just
0:30 remaining in the game. Bustin's goal also enabled the Lady
Monarchs to break the school record of eight goals in one game which was
accomplished twice. The most recently in 1997.
King's outshot Keystone 33-4 and held a 6-4
advantage in corner kicks. King's goalie Liz Ball made two saves on the
day.
DeRosa broke the previous King's single-game record
of three goals held by several players, including DeRosa, who equaled the
mark a year ago.
King's returns to action Saturday at 1:00 p.m.. when
the Lady Monarchs travel to meet FDU-Florham in Madison, NJ.
