ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa. -- At halftime of Saturday's Homecoming game between the Elizabethtown College women's soccer team and Scranton, there were a pair of zeroes on the board. By the end of the Landmark Conference matchup between the Blue Jays and Royals, it was a 3-2 win for E-town, who snapped a seven-game winless skid against Scranton.

The two teams took turns going at one another, but neither side could punch through in the opening 45 minutes.

Leigh Ungerleider gave Elizabethtown (8-3-1, 3-1-0 Landmark) the lead in the 50th minute, but it did not last long. Teresa Hagerty was able to tie up the game three minutes later. Then, 54 seconds after Hagerty's goal, Stephanie Lowery put the Royals in front 2-1.

Scranton (6-4-3, 3-1-0 Landmark) searched for a third, but Trinity Soto made sure the ball did not cross her line. The freshman came through with consecutive saves in the 67th minute.

Midway through the second half, Lydia Lawson got by her defender near the endline and crossed the ball toward the far post. The ball found Natalie Nye, she took a touch, pushed the ball out to her side and roofed a shot that the keeper couldn't react to for the first of her career in the 69th minute. Nye's goal tied the game at 2-2.

Both sides didn't back off as they went up and down the field, pressing each other's back line.

It was Lawson that would strike for E-town's third goal in the 76th minute, which came after a shot that slid just wide of the net a minute earlier.

The Royals threatened on their corner kicks, and it was a defender at the post for the Blue Jays that kept a ball out in the 80th minute, clearing it off the line. Elizabethtown denied any further opportunities for Scranton the rest of the way as they ran out the clock.

Lawson's goal was her sixth game-winning goal of the season (and fourth straight), which ties a school record in the single season.

Soto made six saves in the win while Amanda Steinberg had two for the Royals.

The women's soccer team will travel to McDaniel on Tuesday, October 22, for a 3:30 p.m. non-conference matchup with the Green Terror.
