Women’s Soccer on Cruise Control in 10-0 Shutout of Johnson

PIKEVILLE, Ky. -- Scoring its most goals since 2010, the University of Pikeville women's soccer team had an easy time with Johnson (Tenn.) on Monday, posting a 10-0 win over the Royals at the Bob Amos Complex.

UPIKE scored four goals in the first half, then exploded for six more in the second with 23 players earning playing time. It was a lopsided affair from all angles as the Bears outshot them 27-4 overall and 15-3 in shots on goal.

UPIKE also had more corner kicks (6-3) and was the aggressor on offense, evident by being offsides nine times to Johnson's zero. While there was plenty of offense on the home side, it was not a very physical match with each team being called for two fouls each.

Caitlyn Hunt went the full 90 minutes in goal for the Bears, collecting three saves to secure the shutout, while Lexi Benscoter collected five saves while playing the entire game as well.

Tori Dillon paced all players with five shots while five others placed two shots on goal each. Lyndsey Jones and Jackie Kidd were the offensive leaders with two goals each and Skylar Chapman dished out a game-best two assists.
