Women's Soccer Downed at Appalachian State, 4-0

BOONE, N.C.- Appalachian State scored their fourth-straight win and third consecutive shutout by a 4-0 margin over the VMI women's soccer team Tuesday afternoon at the ASU Soccer Stadium. With the win, Appalachian improves to 6-4 with the non-conference win, while the Keydets fall to 3-5 overall.

The Mountaineers outshot VMI by a 21-6 margin and had 16 shots on goal. Keydet goalkeeper Kathleen Underwood made a career-high 11 saves in the losing effort.

Paige Morrow scored her first goal of the afternoon in the ninth minute when what appeared to be a cross from deep on the near side snuck into the far upper
corner of the goal. Twenty-two minutes later, Morrow would make a nearly identical play, only from closer in, for her second goal of the match and third of the season. Kalin Bradley recorded the assist on
the second tally.

ASU carried the 2-0 lead through halftime and into the 49th minute when Beth Miller scored her third goal of the year. Miller booted Emily Dixon?s pass along the endline into net. The Apps added another goal in the 77th minute when Lindsay Moore dribbled through the VMI defense and knocked a shot into the upper near corner to give ASU the final 4-0 victory.

Emma White only had to stop one shot on goal to pick up her fourth shutout of the season.

The Keydets return to action Saturday afternoon, as they host Radford in a Big South Conference contest at 4 p.m. at Patchin Field.
