Metro Roundup: ISU women’s soccer makes it 2 shutout victories in a row


The Tribune-Star

TERRE HAUTE — Junior goalkeeper Emily Lahay and the Indiana State women’s soccer team tallied their second consecutive shutout victory on Sunday afternoon at Memorial Stadium, dropping visiting IPFW 2-0.

Indiana State (2-2) scored one goal in each half, breaking the scoreless game in the 31st minute. Morgan Wendlandt gave ISU the lead with a free kick from 25 yards out, slipping the ball just under the crossbar and off the outstretched hands of the IPFW goalkeeper.

The Sycamores added to their lead in the 72nd minute, thanks to the quickness of Alison Gasparovich. She stole the ball from the IPFW midfielders and slashed her way through the entire Mastodon backline before hitting a left-footed shot past the keeper from 10 yards out.

ISU played solid defense Sunday, allowing only eight shots; Lahay did not have to make a save. The shutout was the second consecutive one this season for the Sullivan High School graduate and her sixth career clean sheet.

The Sycamore backline, consisting of Katie Geyman, Wendlandt, Casey Allbright, Autumn Jacobs and Shelby Troyer, consistently turned away attacking plays by IPFW and forced the majority of IPFW’s eight shots to come from beyond 25 yards from goal.

Indiana State has another home match next Sunday, a 1 p.m. contest against Eastern Illinois.
