Women's Soccer Falls at Albertus Magnus
NEW HAVEN, Conn. - The Mitchell College women's soccer team
dropped a 3-1 non-conference tilt at Albertus Magnus College on
Tuesday afternoon.
Danielle Figueroa netted all three goals for the Lady Falcons,
who won their program-record sixth game in a row. Albertus
Magnus (6-2-0 overall) outshot Mitchell (2-4-0 overall)
by a 24-4 margin in the contest.
After a scoreless first half, the Falcons got on the scoreboard
when Figueroa scored in the 60th minute with her left foot on a
pass from senior Jenna Riccio. Mitchell responded just three
minutes later when junior Nikki Hoxie finished a pass from
sophomore Kaitlyn McGinn to tie the game at 1-1.
Figueroa scored the eventual game winner in the 76th minute as she
one-timed the ball into the back of the net on a pass from Samantha
Gigliotti. Figueroa then completed the hat trick when she
finished a cross from Gigliotti with a header to make the
score 3-1.
