Only once in the 23-year history of women's soccer at Tompkins Cortland Community College has the Panthers scored more goals than the team did Saturday. Playing at Jamestown Community College, the Panthers exploded for ten goals in a 10-2 win. The only other time the Panthers have reach double digits came way back in 1998, when the team scored 11, also in a game against Jamestown. This year's win improves the Panthers to 3-4 while the Jayhawks fall to 0-10-1.

As impressive as the final score was the way the Panthers got there. The attack came from all sides: a different player scored each of the first six goals. A total of seven players recorded points, led by eight points from Paris Good (Syracuse/Ithaca H.S.). Elise Clavel (Ithaca/Lehman Alternative Community School) tied a Panthers record with four assists, adding a goal to finish with six points. Shannon DeRosa (Poughquag/Arlington H.S.) and Cristina Torres (Ellenville/Ellenville H.S.) each had two goals and an assist, Brianna Allen (Marion/Marion H.S.) had a goal and an assist, and Morgan Lawrence (DeRuyter/DeRuyter H.S.) had a goal.

Starting goalkeeper Kerrin O'Shaughnessy (Worcester/Worcester H.S.) moved to the field in the second half, collecting an assist of her own.

O'Shaughnessy had two saves in the first half. Allison Rumfelt (Andover/Andover H.S.) took over in the second half, recording six saves.

The Panthers will tray to make it two straight Wednesday at Corning Community College.
