Adelphi University Athletics

Pleasantville, N.Y. – Head coach Brooke DeRosa and the Adelphi women's soccer team took a quick trip up to Pace on Tuesday night for their third conference game in six days.

Series History:

• Adelphi (4-4-1, 1-3-0 NE10) moves to 14-4 against Pace since September 2009, snapping a four-game winning streak that dated back to 2022. The last matchup was a 1-0 Panther win on November 5, 2005, when Dylann Trahey scored the game-winner.

Highlights:

• Kayleigh Goodrich netted a brace, her fourth multi-goal game of the year. Her season total now sits at 13.
• Bethany Solari provided an assist on Goodrich's first goal, the first of her career.
• Maddy Catalanotti made four saves.

How It Happened:

• Goodrich got the game off to a fast start, recording the first shot less than a minute into the match.
• Although the Panthers had the first shot, it was Pace who took an early lead in the eighth minute.
• Adelphi came storming back minutes later to tie the game at one.
• After a throw-in, Solari sent a perfect through ball to Goodrich, who cut to her left, beat a Pace defender and potted the ball in the back of the net.
• Tied at one, Goodrich and Solari tried to give Adelphi a lead but were stopped by the Pace defense.
• The Setters came down the field with an attack of their own and gained the lead in the 28th minute after some bounces did not go the Panthers' way.
• Seconds later, disaster struck for Adelphi. Pace went right down the field after taking the ball away, and another funky play left a loose ball on the doorstep, which the Setters capitalized on for a 3-1 lead.
• Less than two minutes later, however, Goodrich came through again for the Panthers.
• After Giavanna Meservy sent a ball to the senior, she deked past multiple defenders and then beat the keeper to cut the deficit to one.
• Pace had a few more chances to end the half, but Catalanotti kept the score at 3-2 heading into the break.
• In the opening 20 minutes of the second half, Adelphi outshot the Panthers eight to two, but its woes finding the back of the net continued.
• In the 70th minute, Juliana Procopio entered for the Setters and scored just 50 seconds later, doubling the hometown lead.
• Adelphi kept up the offensive pressure but just could not find any goals, even with four straight corner kicks.
• Although they outshot Pace 22-13 and had nine corner kicks to the Setters' one, the Panthers fell 4-2.

Up Next:

• The Adelphi women's soccer team will be back on the pitch on Saturday at 11 a.m. to host Saint Michael's on Senior Day, where Maddy Catalanotti, Julianna Violi, Sarah Winnegar, Kayleigh Goodrich, Sophia Cataldo, Carmen Reinerink and Dani Perugini will be honored.
