Leading the way for the Eagles was sophomore Christina Thornton (Algonquin, Ill.) as she had two goals in the first half. She netted the first goal in the 21^st minute when Samantha Vestal (Bakersfield, Calif.) found her open on the sideline.

Just seven minutes later, Vestal found Thornton again after Vestal’s shot was deflected to Thornton in the box for Thorton to tap in the second goal of the game. Just before halftime, Rebecca O’Donnell (Wheeling, Ill.) notched her first goal of the 2007 season in the 42^nd minute after she found Emma Mugg’s (Shawnee, Kan.) free kick from outside the box.

Vestal scored her fourth goal of the year in the 54^th minute when she floated a shot into the goal off a Baerbel Hartner (Ettrigen, Germany) assist. Freshman Krystle Arizmendi sealed the 5-0 win in the 89^th minute off an Amber Bocquin (Shawnee, Kan.) corner kick.

JU out shot RWC, 21-5, and had eight corner kicks to RWC’s three. There were only 14 fouls, total, in the entire match, too.

With the win, JU improves their record to above .500 at 6-5-1 and will now travel to Bourbonnai, Illinois, on Wednesday, October 9^th, to face Olivet Nazarene at 3:30 p.m.
