The Shippensburg University women's soccer team scored three times in the second half Tuesday to pull away from host Pitt-Johnstown, achieving a 4-0 victory over the Lady Cats in a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) matchup in Johnstown.
 
Shippensburg (4-2, 3-2 PSAC) led 1-0 at halftime after senior Casey Rightmyer scored in the 32nd minute off a cross from freshman Paige Harris.
 
Pitt-Johnstown (0-5, 0-5) nearly took the lead 15 minutes in when its first shot of the match hit the crossbar, but the Lady Cats would ultimately be kept out of the net. Junior goalkeeper Leah Roy made two saves in 75 minutes of action and split the shutout with fellow junior Kayla Kennedy.
 
SU took a 2-0 lead at 53:00 when sophomore Emily Brown scored her first collegiate goal off an assist from senior Sharon Juarez. The Raiders out-shot UPJ 12-1 in the second half and 22-8 for the match. UPJ keepers combined for seven saves.
