Hounds Dominate Grizzlies With 28 Total Shots to Win 2-1

ALAMOSA, Colo. – Two second half goals and an onslaught of shot attempts led Eastern New Mexico women's soccer over Adams State by a final score of 2-1.

Eastern (1-1-1, 0-0 LSC) kept the pressure on Adams State (1-3, 0-0 RMAC) all afternoon and shattered their previous season high with 28 total shots, 12 of which were on goal.

A goal from Victoria Nunez in the 58th minute opened up the scoring for the Hounds, and a goal from Anahi Hernandez in the 71st minute offset the equalizing goal from Adams State to secure the 2-1 victory.

Nunez's goal finally broke open the scoring for the Hounds as they consistently maintained possession of the ball and threatened throughout the first half. Eastern totaled 11 shots in the first half and finally put one in the back of the net thanks to a Nunez shot from around 40 yards out that found the top right portion of the net.

Adams State scored six minutes later on a header from inside the box, but couldn't slow down a Hounds attack that finally put across the game winner in the 71st minute. Eastern New Mexico totaled 10 shots in the final 20 minutes of the game, including a late strike from Kierra Diaz that rattled off the cross bar in the 87th minute and nearly extended the lead late in the contest.

Forward Morgan Zuniga was credited with an assist on the Hernandez goal, while Hernandez herself generated multiple scoring chances throughout the game with five total shots. Diaz and Hayden Zuniga each had three shots apiece along with Samantha Fabela and Kaitlyn Caro as the Hounds dominated the Grizzlies across the board.

Eastern New Mexico will return home after the weekend road trip for games scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 13 and Saturday, Sept. 15 inside Greyhound Stadium against East Central and Southern Nazarene.
