TERRE HAUTE, IND. – Indiana State delivered a commanding 5-0 victory over Southeast Missouri State on Sunday afternoon at Memorial Stadium, as five different Sycamores found the back of the net in the team's most complete performance of the season.
The Sycamores wasted no time putting SEMO on the defensive, recording four shots in the opening minutes before breaking through in the 7th. At 6:41, Tori Angelo finished in the bottom left corner off a setup from Alex Lehnert, giving ISU the early advantage. Lehnert doubled the lead at 20:15, slotting a right-footed shot to the bottom left off an assist from Anna Chor.
SEMO looked for a quick answer midway through the first half, but goalkeeper Alicia Perez made a diving stop at 15:23, while the Sycamore back line cleared away the rebound to keep the Redhawks off the board. Indiana State continued to press with 14 first-half shots and carried a 2-0 advantage into the break.
Indiana State stormed out of the locker room with two goals inside the first four minutes of the second half. At 47:26, Quinn Urquhart headed home a Brooklyn Woods cross, and less than a minute later at 48:10, Isabella Berta fired to the top right corner off a feed from Lehnert to stretch the lead to 4-0. Ashlyn Cohen completed the scoring at 57:08, finishing to the bottom right corner from another Woods assist.
SEMO's best period of pressure in the second was in the 74th minute, when Delaney Timmons stopped a shot from Klinkhardt before the defense turned aside a follow-up from Markovic. From there, the Sycamores controlled possession and saw out the result with a back line that allowed just four shots on goal all afternoon.
Indiana State finished with 21 total shots, forcing SEMO goalkeepers Koerner and Hockett into eight combined saves. Perez and Timmons split time in the net for ISU, combining for the team's second straight shutout.
