Women's Soccer Moves to 2-0 with 3-0 Win Over Michigan
08.18.24 | Women's Soccer
Olivia Lawson scores twice, Regan Dancer adds her second of the season
CINCINNATIÂ - Â Xavier women's soccer moved to 2-0 on the season after taking a 3-0 win over Michigan on Sunday evening at Corcoran Field.
Xavier took the lead early, with Olivia Lawson scoring her second game-winning goal of the season, set up by Samantha Wiehe to take the 1-0 lead in the first 10 minutes.
Lawson found the back of the net again, off a pass from Emma Flick, to give the Musketeers a 2-0 lead midway through the first half.
The game entered a weather delay with 12:48 to play in the first half. After a delay of about an hour, the Musketeers added another goal shortly after resuming with Regan Dancer scoring from Elin Hansson to take a 3-0 lead into halftime.
The Musketeers held the Wolverines off the board for the remainder of the game, limiting Michigan to just three shots on goal for the match, on the way to the first shutout of the season. Maria Galley collected three saves on the way to the clean sheet, picking up her 30th win in-frame as a Musketeer, a Xavier school record.
Next up, Xavier kicks off a five-match road trip at Murray State on Thursday, August 22, set for a 4:00 p.m. start on ESPN+.
