Box Score EMMITSBURG, Md. – A dominating performance by the Long Island University women's soccer team lifted the Sharks to a 4-0 victory against Mount St. Mary's on Friday, Oct. 11 at Waldron Family Stadium.
 
The Sharks controlled the entire match, outshooting the Mountaineers by a 17-6 tally. LIU found the back of the net three times during a 13-minute stretch late in the first half and added a goal early in the second stanza en route to their highest goal tally of the season.
 
Sophomore Kendra Oldroyd matched her career-high with two goals, her third multi-goal game of her career. Classmate Emily Poole tallied one goal and one assist, while sophomore Emily Tirado scored her first goal of the season during the win.

 
After a scoreless 25 minutes of play, Poole put LIU ahead with a top-drawer strike on a free kick from over 25 yards out. Poole bent a dipping right-footed shot perfectly under the crossbar in the top-left corner of the frame for her second goal of the season.  Nearly 10 minutes later, freshman Mariah Morgan slipped a ball through the back line to Oldroyd who sent a low ball into the far corner to double the advantage. The scoring spurt was capped off during the 39th minute when Poole crossed a free kick into the penalty area that was flicked inside the near post by Tirado, giving LIU a 3-0 lead at the half.
 
Less than five minutes into the second half, Oldroyd found the back of the net once again on an assist by freshman Tatiana Lizarraga, capping off the scoring for the Sharks who earned their second shutout of the season.
 
Freshman Kayla Detreux needed just two saves to earn her second career shutout and third career victory.
 
LIU closes out its weekend of NEC contests on Sunday, Oct. 13 when it hosts Merrimack College at 1:00 p.m.
