Cajuns Sluggish in 4-0 Loss
Friday, Oct. 11, 2002
Before Friday's match, head coach Dave Poggi knew in the back of his mind that the long layoff between matches would have an adverse effect on the game. Unfortunately, his fears were confirmed in the form of a 3-0 halftime deficit.
ASU scored three first half goals in the span of 21:43. The first goal of the night came from the left side of the box by Sheri Kiser at the 15:21 mark. Jen Widener later added her first goal of the season with the helper from Sara Axelson-Sahlen. The Indians' third goal of the half came from an assist by Kiser, which set up Marica Vaapil's goal from the left side.
UL Lafayette was only able to fire two shots in the first half, while ASU had eight shots.
In the second half, the Cajuns defense was able to hold ASU scoreless until the 62:55 mark, when Maria Bramer notched ASU's fourth goal of the night with the help of Vaapil.
“The only excuse for us today was that we didn't show up until the second half,” said Poggi. “Now we just need to put this one behind us and be ready for Sunday.”
UL Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns return to action Sunday in a 1 p.m. affair against the Arkansas-Little Rock Lady Trojans.
