September 12, 2008 Lacey, WA – Allison Lawrence led the way for Humboldt State connecting on all three shots she took in the game to defeat Saint Martin’s 3-1 Friday afternoon at the Regional Athletic Complex. Lawrence’s first goal came in the 33rd minute as she took a cross from Katie Forba and put it away. Saint Martin’s knotted the game at 1-1 just five minutes later as Nicole Nedervelt scored on an assist from Jill Jensen. HSU would regain their lead with six minutes to go on the half when Lawrence found the back of the net for the second time, this time with an assist from Kayla Welbanks. Lawrence’s final goal of the game at the 57:41 mark sealed the deal for the Jacks. “All hats off to Humboldt for the three great goals they scored. For us to have so many shooting chances and not be able to convert more of those into goals is a bit disappointing for the kids, but we will work on our quality and move forward,” said head coach Rob Walker. SMU had their opportunities as they outshot the Jacks 24-7 in the game. They had 16 shots on goal but were unable to put any of them away. “Aleigh Mansfield, Kayci Donatelli, Jill Jensen and Bree Klasen stepped in a brought a little magic to our game today. With a little more luck and effort here and there we could have celebrated a little more on the field today,” said Walker. The Saints head to Walla Walla this weekend to take on Whitman College in their final game before the start of conference.
