Box Score

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - For the 17th time in 17 games the ERAU women's soccer team beat Warner University on Friday night at the Embry-Riddle Soccer Stadium. Senior Lindsey Evans chose a perfect time to score her first goal of the season with the game tied at 3-3. Evans headed a corner kick into the corner of the net for the game-winner and the first conference win of the season. The Eagles move to 4-4 on the year, 1-0 in The Sun Conference. Warner falls to 3-4 overall and 0-1 in conference play.

The scoring started early on Friday night when Elina Johansson was taken down in the penalty box by a Royal defender in the sixth minute. Denmark native Cecilie Henriksen beat goalkeeper Julia Valentine on the penalty kick to notch the first goal of the game.

Warner answered seven minutes later when Danielle Chapuseaux received a pass from Abigail Frook and scored her sixth goal of the season to even the match at one apiece.

Just four minutes later Johansson dribbled past two Royal defenders and shot it past Valentine to give the lead back to the Blue and Gold.

The last goal of the first period was scored by Chapuseaux when she chipped it over Eagle goalkeeper Dina Roper to once again tie the game, this time at two goals apiece.

The second half looked to be the complete opposite of the first as neither team had many opportunities on goal until Warner's Brooke Freeman knocked in a blocked ball to give Warner their first lead of the contest 3-2 with just 21 minutes left in the game.

The Eagles showed poise as they attempted to mount a comeback in the last few minutes of the game and their patience was rewarded when Johansson notched her eight goal of the season in the 76th minute as the game was once again squared.

Henriksen's corner in the 79th minute led to Evans' go-ahead goal and sealed the win for Coach Samantha Baggett Bohon and her squad.

Roper minded all 90 minutes of the Eagle net and made eight saves on the night. Valentine matched Roper's eight saves as she also played all 90 minutes.

The Eagles held the edge in shots, 26-22, and corners, 6-1.

The Blue and Gold stay in Daytona Beach when they host Webber International on Sunday at 3 p.m.
