Green Bay Enjoys Senior Day with 2-0 Victory

By: Joey Daniels (@GBJoeyD)

GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com)Celebrating senior day in shutout fashion, the Green Bay women's Soccer team defeated Youngstown State 2-0 on Saturday afternoon at Santaga Stadium. The Phoenix improved its record to 10-5-2 overall and 4-3-0 in Horizon League play while clinching a spot in the Horizon League Tournament in the process for the first time since 2009.

As if it was scripted, both goals scored by the Phoenix came off the feet from two seniors. Rhiana Stelter and Abby Juzwik both scored less than 10 minutes into the game, tallying goals in the 7th minute and 9th minute.

Stelter took advantage of a one-on-one opportunity against the Youngstown State (7-7-2, 3-3-1 HL) goalkeeper, sliding one into the back of the net to give the Phoenix the only goal it would net. Karina Fredette was credited with the assist on the goal, deflecting one to the open Stelter.

Fellow-senior Juzwik scored her fourth goal of the season from around 20 yards outside the net, receiving a perfect feed from forward Heidi Hartmann. Juzwik sailed one over the head of the keeper to put Green Bay up 2-0, which would hold true the remainder of the match.

Senior Alisha Maciewjewski notched the secondary assist on the goal, giving the senior class seven of nine points totaled on Senior Day. Goalkeeper Nastacia Behle picked up the clean sheet in goal, giving Green Bay its fifth shutout of the season after finishing with two saves.

Green Bay dominated the stat sheets, outshooting YSU 10-2 on goal and 25-5 overall.

Nine seniors were recognized before the contest as Chandra Eigenberger, Katy Pilarzyk, Emily Friedl, Alex Ronchak, Abby Juzwik, Hannah Kernen, Alisha Maciewjewski, Elise Olson and Rhiana Stelter were honored for their contributions to the program.
