Crusader Women Open League Play Blanking Green Bay
Rachel Hoaglin (Lakeville, Minn./Academy of Holy Angels H.S.) scored less than two minutes into the match and Kristen Manski (Saint Charles, Ill./North H.S.) registered her second straight shutout on Friday afternoon as Valparaiso opened Horizon League action with a 1-0 victory over Green Bay at Eastgate Field.
The win was Valpo’s first Horizon League opener in five tries since joining the conference prior to the 2007 season.
Hoaglin put the Crusaders on the scoreboard just 1:58 into the match, the second fastest goal in school history to start a match. Catherine Terrell (Brighton, Mich./Brighton H.S.) played the ball into the middle of the box for Brooke Henderson (Westlake, Ohio/Westlake H.S.), about 15 yards from goal. Henderson could not find room around a Phoenix defender, but slotted the ball to Hoaglin in the right corner of the six yard box. Hoaglin chipped the ball over Maddie Drusch into the top left corner of the goal for her team-leading fourth goal of the season, and second match winner.
