WINTER PARK, Fla. (September 11, 2011) - The
20th-ranked Rollins women's soccer team scored early and

Holly got Rollins on the board in the fourth minute off a pass
from Ashley Waplinger. Schrader made it a two-goal spread
in the 10th minute as Boone laid a cross in the box for
the header. Just two minutes later, Jones scored her first on a
hard strike with Waplinger again earning the assist.
In the 19th minute, Piedrahita scored on an
unassisted free kick near the top of the box to make the score 4-0.
Courtney Redding lofted a corner kick into the box in the 2rd
minute and found Andrea Jonsson for the score. Boone added another
goal before the half as Morgan Foster found Ginder streaking down
the right side in open space. She then sent a strike into the box
where Boone beat the keeper.
Jones scored her second of the day in the 47th minute
with Schrader setting up the play. In the 66th minute,
Ginder took advantage of a failed clearance by the Lions and found
the back of the net to make the score 8-0.
