Box Score ALLENTOWN, PA – The 12^th-ranked Johns Hopkins women's soccer team scored twice in each half and outshot host Muhlenberg 38-0 as the Blue Jays cruised to a 4-0 win over the Mules in the Centennial Conference opener for both teams at Varsity Field Saturday afternoon.
 
The win improves the Blue Jays' record to 3-1-3 and extends their unbeaten streak to six straight, while the Mules drop their second straight and slip to 1-7 on the year.
 
Johns Hopkins got all the offense it would need in a four-minute span early in the game as they scored twice before the game was 13 minutes old.
 
Junior Megha Salvi got the Blue Jays on the board at the 9:01 mark as she took a perfect feed in the middle of the box from Katie Sullivan and she poked one just under the crossbar from seven yards out to give the Jays the early lead.

Just under four minutes later, it was Sullivan again triggering things as she crossed one through the box to Maria Romo-Nichols, who quickly centered it to Carrie McIntire in front and McIntire slotted it home to double the lead.
 
Despite heavy pressure from the Blue Jays, the score held at 2-0 until the 59^th minute, when Sullivan bent home a corner kick to push the lead to 3-0.  Just over 24 minutes later it was Katia Chiampas closing out the scoring as she weaved her way around a defender to the outside of the box and fired one inside the far past to account for the 4-0 final score.

The 38 shots are a season-high and the most for the Blue Jays since November 12, 2022, when JHU fired 43 shots against Lesley in a 6-0 win in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. This was also the first time Johns Hopkins has held a team without a shot since October 4, 2023, when the Jays topped Washington College 3-0 and held a 25-0 advantage in shots.
 
Johns Hopkins will return to action on Wednesday, September 25 when the Blue Jays travel to Dickinson (7 pm) for another Centennial Conference game.
