Seahawks Declare Victory after Home-Opener

ST. MARY'S CITY, Md. - The St. Mary's College of Maryland women's soccer team opened the 2021 season with a win over Marymount University. The Seahawks edged the Saints, 1-0.

How it Happened
  • The energy was set this afternoon (Sept 4) when the Seahawks took the field at the Jamie L. Roberts Stadium for the first game of the Seahawk Classic. St. Mary's College started with gusto, scoring the lone goal of the afternoon within the first six minutes of the match. Sophomore midfielder, Flor Katz-Starr, found the back of the net for her first goal of the season. 
  • The Seahawks played a strong defensive game holding the Saints to four shots in the first half. First-year forward, Gracie Duch, maintained a perfect shot on goal percentage, with three of her three shots being saved by Marymount goalkeeper, Grace Needham. St. Mary's College fired off nine total shots in the first half, Duch leading with three, Katz-Starr with two, and Ella Raines, Lily Mellendick, Gabby Manning, and Mary Quinn all contributing one apiece. 
  • In the second half, the Seahawks faced 11 shots from the Saints. Kylie Wells, first-year goalkeeper faced 15 shots today and tallied six saves. During the 86th minute, Megan Tazza fired off a shot that was saved by Needham. Soon after, Manning got a shot off, which landed too high on the cage. When the regulation time ended, the defensive and offensive efforts of the Seahawks gave them their first victory of the season.
Inside the Box Score
  • Wells currently holds a 1.000 save percentage and 0.00 goals-against average. Wells snagged four of her six total saves in the second half of the match. 
  • The Saints outshot the Seahawks 15-10. Three out of the seven student-athletes who shot today, came off the bench proving the Seahawks have multiple offensive threats on the roster.
