Franken Breaks Career Shutouts Record, Women’s Soccer Blasts Pfeiffer

Second half surge sees five Quakers score goals

MISENHEIMER, N.C. – Ady Franken (Peoria, Ill.) finished off the 20th clean sheet of her distinguished career at Lefko-Mills Field, in the process, breaking the program record for shutouts in a career for the Guilford College women's soccer team, as they ran away late to blowout Pfeiffer University, 6-0, in non-conference action on Wednesday night.

With the win, GC continues to roll through their early-season schedule, improving to 4-0-0 heading into a matchup with No. 10 nationally ranked Emory University on Sunday. On the other side, the Falcons find themselves grounded for the first time on the young season, dropping to 2-1-0.

Required to make just one save for the third time in four contests this season, Franken improves to 4-0-0 in frame for the Quakers. With the flawless night, she surpasses Danielle Brisotti '06 for the most contests in which she has not been scored against in her career. Kaylee Ollis survived the first-half onslaught against her, but could not maintain her defense in the second half finishing with six goals allowed against a dozen saves.

The Guilford offense was busy with Naomi Campbell (Youngsville, N.C.) getting them on the board early with her second game-winner in four contests, before adding a second score in the second stanza, with both of her tallies being assisted by Mya Rivera (Parish, Fla.). They spread the wealth the rest of the way with Ashlyn Kahre (Fort Mill, S.C.), Rivera, Trinity Robinson (Burlington, N.C.), and Zekiah Johnson (Winston-Salem, N.C.) all finding paydirt and Andrea Cazares-Vasquez (Durham, N.C.), Grace Overton (Apex, N.C.), Ainsley Yates (West End, N.C.), and Emily Parker (Lillington, N.C.) all issuing helpers. The hosts mustered just three shots on the evening with Victoria Tita and Jadelyn Taylor both attempting shots that were off line and Yailine Riera challenging the frame.

The Quakers broke the ice in the 16th minute of play following a brief back-and-forth in their offensive zone, Carmen Ellis (Johnson City, Tenn.) eventually controlled the ball along the right sideline, sending a feed to Rivera just outside the 18'. She drove alongside the right side of the box, beating a pair of Falcon defenders, before turning the corner just ahead of the goal line and sending a left-footed cross through the box leaving the host's keeper stuck in-between and resulting in Campbell getting a wide-open look from point-blank range, redirecting the rock with her right foot for her third score in as many contest, putting GC in the lead.

Restricted to just the one goal on the board, GC had plenty of chances with eight shots, including six on frame in the first half, in addition to all three corners.

The Quakers pilled it on in the second half, beginning with Rivera linking up with Campbell again in the 53rd minute. Just over seven minutes later it was Cazares-Vasquez finding Kahre. Already standing as the only Quaker with multiple helpers in a game on the young campaign, Rivera then matched Jenna Shotton's (Walnut Cove, N.C.) season-high for single-game points with a goal of her own off an Overton assist. After seeing her first collegiate goal taken away by a stat correction last week, Robinson scored goal number-one for real this time off a Yates feed. Then with just 61 ticks remaining, Johnson put the finishing touches on the scoreboard with the team's sixth of the night, with the assist awarded to Parker, bringing the final score to 6-0.

GC pelted the Falcons final line of defense, taking 18 second-half shots with 12 of them challenging the twine, blowing away PU's overall game total of three shots.

Guilford has their best test yet, a date with No. 10 Emory University next on Sunday, September 15th. First kick is set for 1 PM.
