FINAL SCORE

WEST LONG BRANCH, N.J. – A goal in each half allowed the Monmouth University women's soccer team to defeat Hampton University, 2-0 and clinch a share of the Coastal Athletic Association (CAA) Regular Season Title with the win on Sunday afternoon.
 
The Hawks share the CAA Regular Season Title with Stony Brook. Monmouth earned the number one seed for the upcoming CAA Tournament via a tiebreaker with the Seawolves. 
 
The Hawks applied immediate pressure and capitalized at the 9:17 mark. Summer Reimet controlled a ball played into the left side of the box, went around her defender and fired it home for the 1-0 lead. 
 
Monmouth continued to look for another goal but strong play from Avery John in goal kept the Hawks off the board. John made five saves after surrendering the goal as Monmouth took the 1-0 lead into the half.
 
Cassie Coster made a save early in the second half to keep the Pirates off the board. 
 
The Hawks continued to battle in the second half and in the 88th minute tacked on a second goal. Ashley Lavrich crossed a ball from the left post to the right side. That ball found the foot of Liza Suydam, who launched one into the back of the net. 
 
Monmouth closed out the 2-0 victory.
