Standish, ME - The Saint Joseph's College women's soccer team won its sixth straight match this past Sunday with a 6-0 win over Maine Presque Isle at home. FY Mikayla Call (Portland, ME) notched two goals and four other Monks added goals.

The Monks are off to their best start in the program's 20-year history and are undefeated (2-0) in Great Northeast Conference play.

St. Joe's scored four first half goals beginning with SO Anna Willis (Gorham, ME) heading the ball into the back of the net off a perfect cross from FY Elizabeth Theberge (Danvers, MA) at 9:56.

Call connected on her first at 17:49 from about ten yards out off a through ball by SO Brianna Jordan (Scarborough, ME) to make it 2-0 and the Monks extended the lead after a corner kick by SR captain Jillian Leger (Westminster, MA) led to a goal by FY Anna Flynn (Scituate, MA).

Flynn found Call with a cross in the thirty-seventh minute and Call beat the keeper with a shot to the bottom right of the net to make it 4-0 going into the break.

The Owls regrouped and held the Monks scoreless over the first fifteen minutes of the second half, but SO Lauren Hagerman (Scarborough, ME) set up SO Heidi Stucki (Oakland, ME) for the fifth goal of the game.

FY Whitney Linindoll (Paris, ME) closed out the scoring with a shot from outside the box in the 71st minute.

The Monks travel to Newton, Mass. on to take on GNAC opponent Mount Ida College at 3:30 PM on Wednesday, September 19th.
