The Lakeland College women's soccer team returned to their winning ways in the Lake Michigan Conference with a 4-1 win over Marian College today. Senior Forward Amanda Smith (Neenah) tallied the fourth goal, setting the all-time Lakeland College goal scoring mark with her 89th career goal.

Freshman Midfielder Marie Reynolds (Fond du Lac) got the Muskies on the board in the 30th minute when she scored her sixth goal of the season. Reynolds would tally her second goal of the game and seventh of the season just three minutes later to give the Muskies a 2-0 halftime cushion.

Junior Forward Ann Lehecka scored a great third goal for the Muskies on a header only to have it called back for a questionable foul. Lehecka would not be denied as she found the nylons with a goal in the 66th minute to give Lakeland a 3-0 lead.

Marian would tally a goal in the 78th minute to take the score to 3-1. The Muskies would finalize the scoring at 4-1 in the 80th minute when Smith headed home a rebound off a Lehecka shot. Smith now has 25 goals on the season.

Sophomore Alli Weiss made seven saves on the day for Lakeland.

The Muskies return to action this Saturday, October 23rd at noon when they travel to Madison to take on the Eagles of Edgewood College.
