ROLLA, Mo. — Missouri S&T women's soccer delivered a dominant performance from start to finish Saturday, cruising to a 6-0 win over the University of Indianapolis at Allgood-Bailey Stadium.
The Miners (6-3-2, 5-2-2) wasted little time finding their rhythm, scoring three times in the opening 17 minutes to take a commanding lead into halftime.
Grace Kohler (Roca, NE/Norris) opened the scoring in the fourth minute, finding the back of the net off an S&T corner kick to give the Miners a 1-0 advantage.
Just under three minutes later,
Aubrey Case (Yorktown, VA/Tabb) doubled the lead with a goal assisted by
Adriana Benassi (Lee's Summit, MO/Lee's Summit).
Jenna Marti (Sammamish, WA/Eastside Catholic) then capped the opening-half scoring in the 16th minute, converting a pass from
Carlye Bennett (St. Louis, MO/Saint Joseph's Academy) to put S&T ahead 3-0.
The Miners continued their offensive attack after halftime, adding three more goals in the opening eight minutes of the second half.
Benassi scored her second goal of the afternoon in the 46th minute, with
Ella Kramer (Liberty, MO/Liberty North) providing the assist. Kramer then converted a penalty kick in the 52nd minute to make it 5-0.
Natalie Pate (Festus, MO/St. Pius X) capped the scoring shortly afterward, also converting from the penalty spot to give the Miners a 6-0 advantage.
S&T finished the afternoon with a 17-2 advantage in shots and a 7-2 edge in corner kicks. The Miners also recorded 10 shots on goal while holding UIndy without a shot on goal.
