Scots Shoot Past Stars on Senior Day

GAME FLOW 
The Scots jumped out to an early 1-0 advantage as Shelby Straight delivered a great through ball to Joyce Barbosa. Barbosa took one touch and chipped it passed the goalie. The Stars, however, would answer right back just two minutes later. In the 24th minute, Sarah Malmros tied up the game as she took a shot from well outside the box that rocketed into the top corner of the goal. The Scots created several chances before the half, but were unsuccessful and the score remained tied entering the second half. Lyon outshot Stephens College 16-5 in the first half.

The second half started off very similar to the first as the Scots would score the first goal of the second stanza. In the 54th minute, Hailey Gonzales headed in a goal off a rebound, giving the Scots a 2-1 advantage. The score would remain 2-1 until the 66th minute as the Scots scored three goals in three minutes. In the 66th minute, Barbosa converted a penalty kick due to a handball in the box by Stephens College. Just one minute later, Barbosa would finish another penalty kick via a foul in the box by Stephens. This goal gave Joyce Barbosa a hat trick on the afternoon. In the 68th minute, Menthe Steensma took a shot that was deflected by the goalie. Judith Flores would get to the loose ball and fire a shot into the back of the net, giving the Scots a 5-1 lead. Lyon's defense was superb all afternoon, earning the Scots 5-1 victory over Stephens College.
