Women's soccer defeated by Lightning in non-conference affair; Danajah Lawrence scores goal for Medgar Evers

The Medgar Evers College women's soccer team dropped a CUNYAC match on Wednesday afternoon, falling to the Lightning of Lehman College by a score of 9-1. The match took place at Calvert Vaux Park in Coney Island (Brooklyn, NY). With the defeat, the Cougars dipped to 0-7 on the 2024 campaign, while the Lightning improved to 10-3.

Lehman's Emily Huerta dominated the match in the early stages, scoring a pair of goals within the opening 10 minutes of action (6:34, unassisted, and 9:41, from Claudia Diaz) to make it 2-0 in favor of the Lightning. Huerta completed the hat trick at 17:00, slashing home a pass from Hailey Suquilanda to make it 3-0 Lehman.

Later in the stanza, the Lightning's Esmeralda Santos Valencia added a pair of goals of her own (21:32 and 23:43), with Roselyn Vasquez Max picking up an assist on the first of those two aforementioned scores. Maria Martinez netted the visitors' sixth goal at 25:25 (from Stephanie Roldan), and Lehman capped its first half scoring at 34:29 when Natalie Kola found the back of the net off a Martinez pass. After 45 minutes of action, the Lightning held a 7-0 edge.

In the second half, Lehman added two more tallies, courtesy of Katelyn Rice (59:21, from Emily Huerta, and 60:29, from Kola). Medgar Evers was able to get on the scoreboard prior to the end of the match, as at 67:48, Danajah Lawrence collected a throw-in pass before blasting the ball high and over the head of Lehman reserve netminder Ashley Gomez.

Lehman held a 23-5 edge in shots. Starting Lightning goalkeeper Katelyn Rice played the opening half and picked up the win in net, making one save. Fatou Karamoko made seven saves in a losing effort for the Cougars.

Medgar Evers will return to action on Saturday afternoon, as the Cougars will travel to Jamaica, NY to battle the CCNY Beavers in CUNYAC action. The match will take place at the York College Outdoor Athletic Complex, with a  time of 12:00pm.
