Box Score
ACPHS women's soccer coasted to a 7-1 over the College of New Rochelle on Sunday, getting a pair of hat tricks from star juniors Katie Benson (Clifton Park, NY / Shenendehowa) and Erin Tersegno (Webster, NY / Webster Thomas). With the win, the Panthers are now 4-2 overall and 1-1 in the HVIAC. The Blue Angels are 0-1 now both overall and in conference play.

Benson scored three goals in the game's opening nine minutes, which would give ACPHS a lead they would never relinquish. Benson's first was all her own, when she stole the ball of a New Rochelle defender and lifted it just under the roof of the net. On her 2^nd, she got help from Tersegno who raced passed numerous defenders and put in a low cross that Benson would tap in. The dynamic duo linked up again just three minutes later, with a goal very similar to their first. Tersegno grabbed two of her own to close out the half, and the Panthers held a 5-0 advantage heading into the break.

New Rochelle got a goal back in the 2^nd half, but that was canceled out by senior Kennedy Rives' (Austin, TX / Shenedehowa) goal shortly thereafter. Tersegno wrapped up the scoring in the 82^nd minute, netting her 6^th goal of the year and completing her hat trick. Freshman goalie Arica Tehan (New Hartford, NY / New Hartford) earned her first collegiate win, and is now 1-0 in her career.

ACPHS is back in action this Thursday, September 24^th, when they take on Florida National.
