Women's Soccer Rolls Past NDNU, 4-0

Murdock scores twice and Singley ties DSU's single-season assist record


Darian Murdock (Herriman, Utah/Herriman HS) scored two goals and assisted on another to help lead Dixie State to a convincing 4-0 result at Notre Dame de Namur Saturday afternoon at Koret Field. The victory snapped the Trailblazers' two-match skid as DSU improved to 7-3-0 overall, 3-2-0 in Pacific West Conference play.

Dixie State on the board with 2:48 to play in the first half when Montana Hadley (Bountiful, Utah/Viewmont HS) played a free kick to the center of the box, which was deflected by Tana Singley (Farmington, Utah/Viewmont HS) to Murdock, who tucked in her ninth goal of the season to spot her side a 1-0 advantage.

The Trailblazers would erupt for three second-half goals, the first coming on a Murdock feed to Singley (2), who blasted home a shot from the top of the box midway through the 54th-minute to extend the DSU lead to 2-0. Murdock (10) then added her second goal of 14 minutes later, which was set up by a Brooklyn Vogelsberg (American Fork, Utah/American Fork HS) cross, and Jill Bennett (Salt Lake City, Utah/East HS) (2) struck for a breakaway goal thanks to a Tori Page (Centerville, Utah/Viewmont HS) pass through the Argonaut defense late in the 82nd minute.

"It was nice to bounce back with a big win today," DSU Head Coach Kacey Bingham said. "We looked sharp and were playing great combination play. It's always nice to get a shutout and we needed that today. Everyone go their job done."

DSU outshot NDNU (6-5/3-3 PacWest) by a 17-11 count, including a 7-4 edge on goal. Sophomore netminder Felicity Tarr (Tucson, Ariz./Mountain View Marana HS) (W, 6-3-0) made four saves on the day to earn her fourth shutout win of the year.

Singley's first half assist, her eighth of the year, pulled her into a tie atop DSU's single-season assists list with former DSU standout Jasmine Arollo, who recorded eight assists in both the 2014 and 2015 seasons. Meanwhile Murdock's first-half goal was her 11th-career game-winning goal, which moved her into t-second on DSU's career GWG list (Jennifer Mason, 2011-14).

Dixie State continues its four-game Bay Area road swing Monday at Dominican University.
