Second half surge leads Hens past Pride, 3-0 NEWARK, DE-- The University of Delaware women's soccer team scored three goals in a five minute span in the second half, to defeat Hofstra University, 3-0, in America East action Friday night at the Mini-Stadium. After a scoreless first half, the Hens dominated the second half. Junior Brittany Campbell deflected a Christine Wrightson shot in front of the net for the first score of the game 60 minutes into play. The second score did not take long, as Delaware's Caryn Blood scored her team-leading seventh goal two minutes later, beating the Hofstra (5-5-2, 2-3-2) goalie to the right side of the net off a penalty kick. The Blue Hens scored on their third straight shot when Sara Wilson headed a Megan McFadden corner kick to the back of the net three minutes later giving UD a three goal advantage. The Hen defense looked impressive as it held the Pride to just three shots in the second half. Goaltender Andrea Lunn recorded a pair of saves to notch her second shutout of the season.
