STONY BROOK, N.Y. \u2014 Stony Brook women’s soccer returned home and returned to the win column with a 1-0 victory over Hampton on Thursday evening at LaValle Stadium. Lisa Muller<\/a> netted a penalty kick goal, representing the deciding goal in Stony Brook’s fifth clean sheet of the season.<\/p>\n Stony Brook’s offense applied pressure from the get-go, generating chances throughout the entirety of the first half. Leah Rifas<\/a> opened things with a tough-angle shot that was saved, Juni Einarsson<\/a> followed with a low-driven shot that was smothered by the Hampton keeper and a long-range effort from Eva Sprewell<\/a> sailed just wide. Later on it was leading goal scorer Emily Lemke<\/a> that put a shot towards goal that was corralled. Despite all the attempts, Stony Brook had nothing to show for it through the opening half hour of action at LaValle Stadium.<\/p>\n Hampton put forth its first shot attempt at the 32-minute mark of the first half, a simple save for Jona Hennings<\/a>. The Pirates’ best opportunity came after a Stony Brook miscue in the defensive third that led to a Hampton corner kick. The set piece was headed away and promptly cleared by the Stony Brook defense to quickly defuse the threat.<\/p>\n With less than three minutes remaining in the first half, Maya Corbett<\/a> was taken down inside the box and earned a penalty kick. Lisa Muller<\/a> stepped up to take the penalty kick, burying a shot into the lower left corner of the net to put the Seawolves ahead late in the first half. The goal was the first of Muller’s collegiate career.<\/p>\n Stony Brook continued the offensive pressure into the second half, but Hampton held strong defensively to keep the Seawolves from adding to their lead. The Pirates turned in a stronger second half on the offensive end as well, generating a multitude of chances, including four corner kicks. Hampton forced Stony Brook’s backline to play perfectly, making the team earn what eventually became its fifth clean sheet of the season.<\/p>\n Stony Brook returns to action on Sunday, hosting William & Mary for a 1 pm start at LaValle Stadium. The match will stream live on SNY and FloCollege. Read Full Article<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
