Bluejays Earn First Win at Home

ELMHURST, Ill. – The Elmhurst University women's soccer team scored its second win of the season against Alma College 4-1 at Langhorst Field.

Within the first two minutes of play, the Bluejays led 1-0 after Lauryn Wesoloski put a high ball into the box off a corner kick and teammate Hannah Bacon headed the ball into the back of the net.

The Scots responded just six minutes later with a goal of their own. Paige Stephens found teammate Lily Stephan who was able to tally her third goal of the season and tie up the score at one a piece.

Freshman Kylie Roberts scored her first career goal for the Bluejays in the 29th minute after receiving a perfectly placed ball from MJ Lessila across the field. 

Just one minute later, Elmhurst's Gabby Ketola got in on the scoring action by beating an Alma defender and scoring her second goal of the season.

The Bluejays held onto their 3-1 lead until Ketola assisted the second Bacon goal of the contest in the 78th minute.

Elmhurst goalkeeper MaKenzee Velchek earned the win with nine saves while Alma goalkeeper Nicole Tuzinowski collected eight saves.

The Bluejays improved to an overall record of 2-3 and begin conference play at North Central College on Saturday, September 25th.
