PORTLAND, Ore. – Second half goals by
Laura Staropoli and
Emily Aspden broke a scoreless tie, as the College of Idaho ran their unbeaten streak to five, blanking upset-minded Multnomah University, 2-0, at Eastside Timbers Soccer Complex.
Despite a lopsided edge in total shots and shots on frame, the Lady Yotes (8-3-2, 5-3-1 CCC) could not find the net until the 60th minute, when Staropoli blasted a 30-yard free kick into the top left corner of the net – breaking the scoreless tie.
C of I added to the margin in the 75th minute, as a shot by
Victoria Cerda was redirected to the foot of Aspden, who slotted home the goal.
The Lions (0-11, 0-10) played tough throughout – with keeper Lexis Law recording eight saves – but could not overcome a 21-5 deficit in shots by C of I. Coyote keeper Shaw Waters made three saves in earning her second shutout of the season.
The Lady Yotes close out the road trip tomorrow night at Warner Pacific, with kickoff set for 7 p.m.
