Beavers Post 6-1 Victory Over Yale

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Oregon State women's soccer team opened its weekend in Connecticut with a 6-1 victory over Yale on Friday, extending its win streak to five on the season.
 
"I'm extremely proud of the team," said head coach Lauren Sinacola. "They started the game with so much intensity and focus and finished off the game the same way. Yale broke us down a bit and we will learn from those missteps and prepare for a tough contest on Sunday versus CCSU."

The Beavers scored three more goals in the second half. Martinez posted her second in the 50th minute and was assisted by Jackson. Shortly after, in the 54th minute, junior Sophie Conrad posted her first goal of the season. In the 60th minute, McReynolds posted her second goal of the night with an assist from junior Maddie Tetz. 
 
Senior Bridgette Skiba recorded four saves in goal. In the 54th minute, sophomore Hailey Coll took over in goal, earning three saves. The Beavers took six corner kicks and tallied seven shots on goal out of 10 shots total.
