FINDLAY, Ohio – The Ohio Dominican women's soccer team scored once in the first half, and added two insurance goals in the second period, on route to a 3-0 GLIAC win over Findlay Sunday afternoon.

ODU held a 7-3 advantage in shots during the opening 45 minutes, as they took the 1-0 lead into the intermission.

In the 53rd minute Pratt would take a free kick directed to Kethryn Mattingly (Beavercreek, OH), who one touched it to Pavlik. Pavlik then finished on a header, beating the UF keeper in the middle of the goal.

With just over 10 minutes remaining in the match, junior Emily Riviello (Huber Heights, OH) would take the ball down the left flank, crossing it into the box as Johnson would finish.

Pavlik paced ODU with three shot attempts in the match, while freshman Susan D'Isidoro (Twinsburg, OH) and junior Amanda Fodor (Hilliard, OH) each took two shots.
