Emory Defense

Emory University’s starting backfield of sophomore Ashley Kaiser and freshmen Lauren Gorodetsky and Lauren Drosick allowed just eight shots, including just four on goal, over the course of two NCAA Division III Women’s Soccer Championship victories for the Eagles last weekend.  Facing the fifth-ranked Division III offense in 19th-ranked Lynchburg College during the second round of the tournament, the trio held the Hornets to their season-lows with just four shots, including two on goal, during a 1-0 double-overtime win.  Drosick also assisted on the ‘golden goal’ to win the game.  The previous day, Kaiser, Gorodetsky and Drosick also allowed just four shots, two on target, to Maryville College, in the Eagles’ 2-0 first round victory.  It was the first time in the program’s history that the Eagles have recorded multiple shutouts during one NCAA Tournament run.  This season, the three have helped Emory record 10 shutouts, while holding opponents to three shots on goal or less in 11 of 20 games this season.  Seventh-ranked Emory, the only remaining University Athletic Association (UAA) team in the NCAA Championships, will play Wheaton College (Ill.) in the third round of the tournament.
