How it Happened
Sanders put the Owls ahead at 10:28 by kicking the ball off a defender and into the net. Not only for her second goal of the season, but freshman forward
Joclynn Tyler picked up her for her first collegiate assist on the play. Then at 48:19, Sanders set up senior midfielder
Kayleigh Marshall with a pass into the box. Marshall then scored her first goal of the season. The KSC defense then shut down the Mount Holyoke offense, as the Owls picked up the win.
