Box Score Oct. 7, 2017

Box Score

The Basics
• Score: #11 Johns Hopkins - 1, Muhlenberg - 0
• Records: #11 Johns Hopkins (10-2-1, 5-0 CC), Muhlenberg (3-6-2, 1-2-2 CC)
• Location: Baltimore, MD (Homewood Field)
• The Short Story: Riley O'Toole came through once again for the Johns Hopkins women's soccer team as her goal at 71:51 gave the Blue Jays the 1-0 victory over visiting Muhlenberg on Saturday night at Homewood Field.

How it Happened
• Hopkins put on the offensive pressure early led by Michelle Santangelo who had numerous opportunities to score, however she was stopped each time by Mules' goalkeeper Libby Juliano.
• The teams would go into the half tied at zero.
• The Mules opened the second half with some offensive pressure of their own, however, they were unable to get any good shots on net thanks to excellent defense played by Hopkins.
• In the 71st minute, Kyla Persky put a shot on net that was deflected in front and then corralled by O'Toole who buried the shot for the goal.
• One goal was more than enough for Bess Kitzmiller and the Blue Jays defense as Hopkins would win the game 1-0.

What it Means
• The Blue Jays are the lone unbeaten team in Centennial Conference play with a perfect 5-0 record.
• JHU improves to 20-9-1 against the Mules and has won the last six meetings, during which the Blue Jays have outscored Muhlenberg 20-0.

Inside the Box Score

• Johns Hopkins outshot the Mules 23-4 and put 12 shots on goal while Muhlenberg put just two on net.
• The Blue Jays earned ten corner kicks while the Mules took two.
• O'Toole led Hopkins with eight shots (six on goal) while Santangelo took seven shots in the match (four on goal).
