How It Happened
It was all Lebanon Valley in the team's 4-0 shutout victory over St. Lawrence on day one of the William Smith Classic on Saturday afternoon, Sept. 19.

The Flying Dutchmen (3-3) used a pair of goals from leading-scorer Brittany Fleisher and the first scores of the season from Molly Van Leuvan and Caity Stevens, as well as a strong defensive effort to make quick work of the Saints.

Fleisher netted her fifth goal of the year just 50 seconds into the contest to put LVC on the board first. The Dutchmen added two more before halftime as Van Leuvan put her rebound of a Lyndee Sheaffer attempt past St. Lawrence goalkeeper Kim Haab in the 22nd minute before Fleisher added her second of the day off a Megan Arnst assist ten minutes later.

After the break, Stevens put things out of reach when she redirected an Arnst attempt past Haab and into the back of the net in with 25 minutes left to play.
