After an uneventful first half, Coyle got the scoring going for the Sunbirds in the 55th minute, beating the keeper and kicking in a cross from Garcia. Garcia played a role in the next goal as well, 10 minutes later, playing a through ball that hit Thomason in stride, who buried the shot in the box. Schiller added an insurance goal in the 72nd minute after quick passes from Thomason and
Paige Jano.
"This is the first game where we felt like we were able to put together a complete 90 minutes as far as our approach and what we were trying to do with our gameplan and execution," said head coach
Erik Farfan. "As we become more familiar with our current system of play, the girls are able to circulate the ball well and combine through the thirds of the field. We knew the chances were going to come, it's just a matter of keeping our composure in front of the goal."
Caressa Archie,
Brooke Bingham and
Amanda Hudec limited the Hawks chances all night, while
Summer Hammond and
Vanessa Escobar combined on the shutout in goal.
The Hawks dropped to 0-7, 0-3 in PacWest play on the season.
