GOAL SURGE POWERS SCOTS PAST RAMS

Box Score Monmouth used three goals in a nine-minutes span to post a 4-1 win over Cornell Friday at Peacock Park.
 
Kelsi Smith notched her first goal of the season, corralling a loose ball when Darice Brooks' shot was rejected by the Rams keeper. Smith one-timed the shot as she beat the last defender in the 25th minute.
 
Just minutes later Brooks took a feed from Smith and deposited it in the back of the net for what proved to be the game-winner. The Scots added their third goal in the 34th minute on Kara-Jade Gordon's first of two goals. The freshman finished off a feed from Alex Izquierdo for a 3-0 halftime lead.
 
Cornell eventually got on the board in the 81st minute to cut the margin to 3-1, but Gordon regained the Scots' advantage, scoring an unassisted goal in the 88th minute for her team-leading ninth goal of the season.
 
The Scots will host Beloit in another Midwest Conference matchup next Saturday.
