BOCA RATON – The Rice soccer team blanked Florida Atlantic 3-0 Sunday afternoon at FAU Soccer Stadium in Boca Raton, Florida. Rice secured a massive three points within the conference to improve to 5-7-5 (3-4-2 American), while FAU fell to 6-8-4 (4-5 American).
How It Happened
Ava Landstra rattled off the game's first shot before both sides went into a defensive deadlock over the following 30 minutes. Rice broke free for the game's first score, with passes from Brianna Bogar and Valentina Labuschagne finding Allie Love, who headed the ball to the back of the net. Rice led FAU 1-0 at the half.
The Rice offense was firing on all cylinders to open the second half, with Samantha James scoring her first goal of the season just eight minutes into the half. Not even two minutes later, a corner kick from Labuschagne found Jadyn Jaeger for Rice's third goal of the match. Kirsten Ruf held the FAU offense in check the rest of the way en route to the victory.
