Blue Jays clinch top seed with 6-1 win

Rachel West and the Bullets head to the conference tournament as the second seed.

Box Score

BALTIMORE – The Johns Hopkins University women's soccer team put the finishing touches on a perfect regular season, overall and in Centennial Conference play, with a 6-1 victory over visiting Gettysburg College Sunday at Homewood Field.

A win would have given Gettysburg (11-6, 8-2 CC) the top seed and right to host the conference tournament next weekend, but fourth-ranked Johns Hopkins (17-0, 10-0 CC) quickly put those hopes to rest with five first-half goals in Sunday's win. After two years away from Baltimore, the six-time defending conference champs will host the tournament for the fourth time since 2006.

Just a day after the match was postponed due to the winter storm that swept the area, Johns Hopkins was on fire in the first half, missing just twice on seven shots in the opening period. Pamela Vranis started the run with her ninth goal of the season in the 11th minute before assisting on Ava Scheininger's score in the 15th minute.

Paulina Goodman put on a show for the remainder of the period, netting her first hat trick of the year with goals in the 18th, 37th, and 42nd minutes to push Johns Hopkins ahead 5-0.

Junior Lindsey Lyons broke the egg for Gettysburg in the 44th minute, taking a feed from freshman Brigid Behan and scoring for the second consecutive match. It was the first goal given up by the Blue Jays at Homewood Field since Sept. 4.

Johns Hopkins managed just one goal in the second half as Eric Suter posted her league-high 18th tally of the season in the 76th minute. Freshman goalie Paige Della Badia held the Blue Jays off the board with a career-high five saves.

Gettysburg will enter the CC Tournament as the No. 2 seed. The Bullets receive a first-round bye into Saturday's (Nov. 4) semifinals, but the team will have to wait until Monday to find out who their opponent will be as Haverford College (11-1-4, 6-1-2 CC) and Swarthmore College (11-5, 6-3 CC) meet to determine the No. 3 seed.
