Batista's Goal Helps Women's Soccer Defeat NYIT, 1-0

Box Score OLD WESTBURY, N.Y. (Oct. 11, 2014) - On Saturday, the Molloy College women's soccer team played the New York Institute of Technology to a 0-0 score for the first 90 minutes of regulation. In the 100th minute and the first overtime period, sophomore Gabrielle Batista (Hicksville, N.Y.) put one past the Bears' goalkeeper off a deflection. With the win, the Lions are now 2-7-1 overall and 2-3-0 in the East Coast Conference. Following the defeat, the Bears slipped to 2-7-2 on the year and 0-4-1 in the league.

The Lions dominated the Bears in shots, 23-4, while also holding the edge in corner kicks, 6-1.

In net, the Lions' freshman goalkeeper Paige Salmon (West Hempstead, N.Y.) made two saves, while senior netminder Nicole DellaPorta (West Babylon, N.Y.) stopped one shot.

Molloy was finally rewarded with the game-clinching tally after having nine shots on-goal -- including three from junior Annette Mims (Patchogue, N.Y.).

Head Coach Danny Longo and the Lions return to the field on Friday, Oct. 17 when they host Roberts Wesleyan College beginning at 4 p.m.
