Bronxville, N.Y.- A
Tayler Bramley (Jr.-Sparta, N.J.) hat trick highlighted a offensive onslaught by Georgian Court University as the Lions drubbed host-Concordia College, 8-0, Monday afternoon in Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) play. The game was a make-up due to a rainout on October 4th.
GCU (8-3-1, 6-2 CACC), winners of three straight, registers its largest margin of victory since defeating Lincoln University by the same score back on October 7, 2012.
Lizzy Kroon (Fr.-Bayville, N.J.) got things started for Georgian Court 4:21 into the contest when she netted her team-leading eighth goal of the season. Bramley made it 2-0 at 25:01 when she scored her first of the day, courtesy of a
Kelly Poltorak (Fr.-Atlantic City, N.J.) assist.
Bramley earned tally number two just 16 seconds into the second half (45:16) on a Kroon feed and completed the hat trick 2:11 later (47:27) as she put in a
Kaitlyn Hartkopf (Sr.-Cherry, Hill, N.J.) corner kick, the junior's fifth and sixth goals on the year.
Lauren Mendez (Fr.-Toms River, N.J.) scored her second of the campaign at 68:55, followed by
Megan Sherman's (Sr.-Mays Landing, N.J.) first of the season at 69:14.
Tuere Chisholm-Thomas (So.-South Orange, N.J.) officially sealed the victory with two tallies of her own coming at 81:58 and 84:00, respectively.
Casey O'Connor (Jr.-Toms River, N.J.) collected her second straight shutout (fifth of the year) as the Georgian Court netminder compiled one save in 76:43.
The Lions outshot the Clippers (0-8-1, 0-7 CACC) by a 25-4 margin and took eight corner kicks compared to zero for Concordia.
Georgian Court now looks forward to Wednesday afternoon with a key CACC showdown vs. Philadelphia University at 3:30 p.m. on Investors Savings Bank Field. The Lions have not faced the Lady Rams since being eliminated by the arch-rival back on November 5, 2013 in the first round of the CACC Championship Tournament.
