NEWBURGH, NY – For the second time in as many games, the Mount Saint Mary College women's soccer team scored seven goals, this time defeating the College of Staten Island, 7-0. The Blue Knights improved to 2-4 on the season.

Senior Danielle Bucco (Washingtonville, N.Y.) kicked off the scoring in the fourth minute with a breakaway goal. Just forty-four seconds later, the senior found the back of the net once again. She stole the ball from a defender and finished to the far post with her left foot. At the thirteen minute mark, Bucco completed the hat trick on a feed from sophomore Erin McKeon (Watertown, Conn.).

McKeon tallied a goal of her own in the 21st minute, finishing off a nice cross from sophomore Alexi Pascale (Monroe, N.Y.) with her head. Senior Lauren Dorsa (Massapequa Park, N.Y.) closed out the first half barrage, taking a feed from sophomore Colleen Cappadora (Brooklyn, N.Y.) to score in the 33rd minute.

In the second half, Bucco tallied her fourth goal of the night off a nice pass by freshman Kelly Candelet (Mystic, Conn.). Senior Samantha Mech (Mahwah, N.J.) finished off the scoring with a goal on a free kick from thirty-five yards away.

Freshman goalkeeper Casey Roland (Bethpage, N.Y.) needed to make just two saves to preserve her first career shutout.

The Blue Knights won't play again until Thursday, September 24 when they'll head to Bard College for their Skyline Conference opener. The game is scheduled for a 7:00 p.m. start.
