Women’s soccer upsets No. 20 Seton Hill, 2-0

Greensburg, Pa. – The Millersville University women's soccer team shut out No. 20 Seton Hill 2-0 in a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) contest on Dick's Sporting Goods Field Friday afternoon.

The Marauders improve to 6-1 overall and 5-1 in conference play, while the Griffins fall to 5-2 (4-2). The Marauders now have sole possession of first place in the PSAC.

Friday's win marked the first in program history over Seton Hill.

GAME HIGHLIGHTS
• Early in the second half, sophomore Talia Grynkewicz fired a shot that was saved by goalie and bounced out of the box, but freshman Alexis Spencer collected the ball on the left side and converted it for the first goal.
• Three minutes later, the Marauders scored again. Grynkewicz put a foot on a Kay Liebl pass to increase the Marauders' lead to 2-0. Liebl drove the ball into the box and rifled off a shot. A defender and the goalkeeper collided, and Grynkewicz, wide open, chipped in the rebound.
• Millersville held a 6-5 edge on shots in the first half while Seton Hill totaled eight to Millersville's four in the second. 

HEAD COACH MATT PROCOPIO QUOTES
• "This was a great team performance today. I am very proud of how the girls played today. Tactically we did what we needed to do."
• "It is always positive to get a win in general and especially against a quality team. From a confidence perspective, it does not hurt, but we have to stay humble and hungry. We have to continue our approach going forward."
• "Talia put together a great performance today. It is always good to see her get a goal. She had a great assist as well."
• "The first thing we need to do is recover from today and get ready for a great East Stroudsburg team. We just have to continue our approach to the game and continue to play the way we did today."

INDIVIDUAL LEADERS
• Grynkewicz led the team with four shots, a goal, and an assist. Grynkewicz posted her fourth goal and third assist of the season. Grynkewicz totaled a team and season-high four shots.
• Spencer recorded her second collegiate goal.
