Madison, NJ (October 18, 2014) – Two days after senior Brady Walsh broke the single-game record with four goals she nearly equaled that performance with three more goals, all in the second-half, leading the DeSales University women's soccer team to a 4-0 win over FDU-Florham in Freedom Conference action on Saturday evening.
 
Walsh now has 14 goals on the season, just four shy of tying the single-season record of 18 held by DSU Hall of Famer, Jeneen Covely.  She also has 30 points, nine shy of the single-season record.  Walsh also has 45 career goals, six shy of the all-time mark of 51, and became just the second player (Covely) all-time to record 100 career points on Saturday, standing with 103 after Saturday's win.  The all-time record for points in a career is 113, held by Covely.
 
In addition to Walsh, senior Michelle Churchman is also approaching some milestones as she made three saves in the win on Saturday and recorded her sixth shutout of the season, just one shy of tying the single-season mark of seven held by Kelly Hinkle.  She now has 11 career shutouts, one of just three players with 10 or more in a career.
 
Saturday's game was scoreless after 45 minutes of play as just seven total shots were recorded in the opening half, five of which were awarded to FDU-Florham (5-7-2, 1-2 Freedom).
 
The second-half was all Bulldogs (7-5-3, 4-0 Freedom).
 
Walsh needed just 4:59 score her first goal and giving DSU a 1-0 lead on an assist from fellow senior Emily DeOliveira.  Just 8:55 later Walsh scored her second, this time on an assist from freshman Marissa Raia and 4:13 after that Walsh netted her hat trick and put DeSales up 3-0 off a feed from freshman Emily Calatayud.
 
The three consecutive goals scored by Walsh also put her name in the record books again as the second fastest player to score three consecutive goals (13:07) in a game.
 
Freshman Gabby Lucchese provided the exclamation point scoring her first career goal in the 68^th minute to provide the final tally off an assist from senior Megan Strauser.
 
DSU keeps pace with Misericordia University as the only two teams still unbeaten in Freedom Conference play and sets up a very important game on Tuesday at Delaware Valley College with the winner the leading candidate to guarantee a home playoff game in November.
 
The win at FDU on Saturday was also the first-ever win for the Bulldogs vs. FDU on the road as DSU had entered the game with an 0-7-2 career record in Madison, NJ.
 
Game time on Tuesday at Delaware Valley College is set for 3:30 pm.
