MORRISVILLE, N.Y. – Penn State Harrisburg's women's soccer team blanked United East foe Morrisville 4-0 on Saturday afternoon to extend the squad's recent shutout streak to seven games in a row.
Kyla Brossoit had her second straight multi-goal outing, netting a pair of markers on Saturday, while Sydney Hemler and Kylee Altland added one score apiece.
Brossoit wasted little time putting the Lions (11-3-3, 6-0-1 United East) out in front in the early going, burying what proved to be the game winner in the second minute. She doubled the advantage exactly 13 minutes later when she finished off a feed from Sarach Toche-Manley in the 15th minute.
Hemler, the reigning two-time United East Defensive Player of the Week, tacked on another goal just minutes before halftime when she headed home a corner kick insertion from Makayla Grace Weber in the 41st minute. Then, just moments after the break, Altland put the finishing touches on the scoring when she netted the final marker off an assist from Brossoit in the 46th minute.
