Lowry's Hat Trick Fuels Soccer By Davis & Elkins

ELKINS, W.V. – Abigail Lowry's first collegiate hat trick was more than enough to propel UNC Pembroke (1-1-0) past Davis & Elkins (0-2-0) on Sunday afternoon. Lowry came on as a sub in the 23rd minute and completed her hat trick 15 minutes later.

Anna Grossheim and Mercy Bell each recorded a goal and an assist, while Freya Lodge Whitham rounded out the goal scoring for the Black & Gold. Reagan Carr and Bea Vazquez each recorded their first collegiate points with assists as well.

Sunday marked the first time the Braves faced the Senators.

10' Anna Grossheim's through ball found a streaking Reagan Carr down the right side, who found a wide open Mercy Bell in front of the net to put the Braves ahead.
23' A beautiful corner kick from Grossheim found the foot of Freya Lodge Whitham, who one touched it into the back of the net.
24' A perfectly placed free kick from Grossheim snuck over the Davis & Elkins goalkeeper's hands and just under the crossbar.
26' Abigail Lowry put away a Mercy Bell pass for the first of her three consecutive goals.
32' Lowry made a move to get free down the right side and fired a shot that deflected off the netminder's hands into the back of the net.
