Florida State University's women's soccer squad continued its remarkable run, improving to 34 unbeaten regular-season matches with a 4-0 victory over Stetson on Thursday night in DeLand, Florida.
Second-Half Surge
The Seminoles broke a tight contest open after the break, netting all four goals in the second half. Sam Erbach opened the scoring in the 58th minute, her 30th career goal, before Tanner Strickland converted a penalty in the 66th minute and Joelle Jung added a third within a minute.
Peyton McGovern capped the scoring with her first collegiate goal in the 82nd minute, sealing a 4-0 final. The trio of newcomers combined for key assists, highlighting depth in the attacking lineup.
Florida State outshot the Hatters 18-2, with a 13-2 edge in shots on goal, and the defense held firm as sophomore goalkeeper Kate Ockene recorded her sixth career clean sheet, stopping both attempts.
Streak Implications
The win extends the program’s unbeaten streak in season-opening games to three consecutive years and marks the sixth time the Seminoles have scored at least four goals on the road this season. With a perfect 10-0-0 record against Stetson, the team looks poised to carry momentum into conference play.
