Jaguars Crush Chicago State 3‑0 in Record‑Setting Showcase

A senior‑day performance highlighted by Caroline Kelley’s penalty and a stingy defense

The IU Indianapolis women's soccer team delivered a commanding 3‑0 victory over Chicago State on senior day, a performance that not only secured the win but also established a new program record for shot attempts.

Caroline Kelley opened the scoring in the fourth minute, converting a penalty kick that set the tone for a relentless attack.

Bethany Hartigan doubled the lead in the 20th minute with a striking long‑range effort assisted by Kelley, showcasing the team’s fluid offense.

The defense anchored by sophomore goalkeeper Sofia Rodriguez repelled Chicago State’s limited chances, recording 15 saves while the opposition managed only four shot attempts and no corner kicks.

Annaliese Black sealed the result in the 66th minute, finishing off a move set up by Taylor Townley as the Jaguars continued to dominate possession.

With 38 total shot attempts — 18 on goal — the team displayed an aggressive attacking mindset, a statistic that underscores the program’s upward trajectory.

Looking ahead to Bellarmine

The Jaguars will host Bellarmine on September 3 at 7 p.m. at Michael A. Carroll Stadium, using the momentum from this dominant display to kick off the upcoming season.
