9/18/2022 5:25:00 PM | Women's Soccer
Abby Mansoor scores first career goal
WASHINGTON - George Washington women's soccer opened its road conference slate on Sunday afternoon, battling Fordham to a 2-2 draw.
GW received first-half goals from grad student Rachel Sorkenn and sophomore Abby Mansoor. The draw extends the Buff & Blue's season-long unbeaten streak to eight games.
HOW IT HAPPENED:
14th Minute: Fordham opened the scoring off the boot of senior Kristen Cocozza, who drilled her goal home from 25 yards out.
26th Minute: Just over ten minutes later, GW responded with its own goal coming courtesy of Sorkenn. The strike was her sixth of the season, and was assisted by first-year Aoi Kataoka.
44th Minute: Less than 30 seconds before halftime, Mansoor ripped a left-footed strike from 30 yards out. Her goal was the first of her career, and was assisted by first-year Isabel Kelly.
51st Minute: The Rams began the second half with a goal of their own. Natalie Velde found the net, with the assist coming off the foot of Ryann Lucas.
NOTEWORTHY:
•Sorkenn's goal was the 19th of her career. She is now tied with Jane Andersen and Lisa Cellura for ninth all-time in goals scored in GW history.
•Sorkenn registered a season-high five shots on Sunday.
•Kelly's assist was the first of her career.
•Goalkeeper Grace Crowe made a career-high four saves.
UP NEXT:
GW will return to action Thursday when they travel to La Salle. Kickoff between the two sides is scheduled for 6 p.m.
