MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – After a scoreless first half the Embry-Riddle women's soccer team netted two goals in the second period to come away with a 2-0 result over Florida Memorial on Friday. The Eagles, 6-4 overall and 3-0 in The Sun Conference, won their fourth game in a row, while the Lions fall to 3-4-1, 0-1-1.

The Lions battled ERAU to a 0-0 draw at halftime after a downpour 10 minutes into the set slowed play and limited chances on the Florida Memorial side. The Blue and Gold had 17 shots in the opening period but could not put one past FMU's keeper, Katelyn Butler, who saved eight balls during the first half.

The half ended after a Lion defender took down Elina Johansson in the penalty box as the Eagles were rewarded with a penalty kick. Unfortunately, the PK was wide of the mark to leave the game scoreless.

Almost fourteen minutes went by in the second frame when freshman Allison Schultz banged home a Cecilie Henriksen corner kick for the first score of the game, and the first goal of Schultz's career.

ERAU added their second goal in the 65th minute after Johansson crossed the ball to Hanna Lundqvist who flicked the ball over the keeper's head to account for the 2-0 final.

Dina Roper was fairly untested in goal, saving two balls as she played the entire 90 minutes. The Eagle defense did a superb job of restricting Lions' chances as they came away with their fifth shutout of the season.

Embry-Riddle held the advantage in shots (33-7) and corner kicks (9-0), while the Lions were called for 18 fouls to the Eagles' 13.

The Eagles remain in south Florida for a Sunday contest with St. Thomas at 2:00 p.m.
