The Penn State Behrend Lions were back in action after a tough 1-0 league loss to Frostburg State on the road Saturday.  On Wednesday, October 22, the Behrend Lions responded to the challenge and cruised past the Hilbert Hawks 7-0, behind six different goals scorers.

After thirteen minutes of scoreless soccer, Behrend's Lindsey Steinsdoerfer (Pittsburgh/North Hills) connected for her team leading eighth goal of the season to provide some breathing room for the blue and white. With only 10:21 remaining in the first half, Behrend's second goal of the day came off Caitlyn Elser's (Cranberry/Seneca Valley) direct kick from twenty-five yards out.

At the conclusion of the first 45 minutes, Behrend held a 9-0 advantage on shots, while the corner kicks were even at one apiece.

Senior Nikki Frisbee (Valencia/Mars) finished off a rebounded shot to make it 3-0, seven minutes into the second half. Additional goals were then added by Beth Manganaro (Pittsburgh/Chartiers Valley), Steinsdoerfer, Heather Klimuszka (Rochester, NY/Greece-Athena) and Glennis Robash (Mars/Mars).

Behrend's defense did not face much pressure in the contest as goalie Beth Lacy (Erie/Harborcreek) recorded the shutout. The blue and white improve to 6-9-1 on the season and 5-2 in the AMCC, while the Hawks fall to 5-10 and 1-6 in league play.

Penn State Behrend will be right back in action as they take on Penn State Altoona on Saturday, October 25 at 1:00 p.m.  Penn State Altoona enters the match up atop the AMCC standings at 6-0-1.  The Behrend Lions will then host conference foe Medaille to complete the regular season.  The game will be held at 1:00 p.m. on October 28, on the Behrend Fields.
