TOWSON, Md. – The Monmouth women's soccer team scored a pair of first-half goals in a 3-0 shutout over Towson on Sunday afternoon at Tiger Field in Towson, Md.

Emily De Almeida and Evangeline Perdomo found the back of the net in the opening 45 minutes, and the fifth clean sheet of the season by netminder Tallulah Miller and the Monmouth defense led the Hawks to their fourth straight victory in conference play.

Monmouth was responsible for the first three shot attempts in the match, as Loren Gehret, Chloe Messer and Summer Reimet each missed wide inside of six minutes.

The Hawks found twine in the 25^th minute when Emily De Almeida buried a shot off a deflected cross, giving Monmouth the game's opening goal and a 1-0 lead.

After Ashley Lavrich rang the woodwork in the 38^th minute, Monmouth went back on the attack one minute later. Lavrich forced a turnover in the middle of the field and played a ball out wide to Alex Dreihaup. The rookie found Perdomo, who scored the Hawks' second goal of the first half with a diving header.

The Monmouth defense closed out a strong opening 45 minutes, holding Towson to just two shots and one attempt on goal in the first half.

The Tigers opened the second half with a pair of shots, forcing Miller to make a save from point-blank range. In the 68^th minute, Gehret put a rifle on net from 20 yards out, but a diving stop from Teagan Gardner kept Towson within a pair.

Miller made her third save of the afternoon with just over 12 minutes remaining, but a strong defensive clearance from Cadi Hoke thwarted the threat.

In the 86^th minute, Gehret's free kick from the right side deflected off a Towson defender into the goal, putting a finishing touch on the Hawks' 3-0 victory, earning Monmouth its largest margin of victory in 2025.
