Grossheim Sets New School Record In Soccer's 6-0 Senior Day Rout Over King

PEMBROKE – Anna Grossheim scored five goals to break the UNCP single-game record in a dominating 6-0 Senior Day win over King in Conference Carolinas action Saturday afternoon at LREMC Stadium.

Mercy Bell tallied the other goal for the Braves, while also adding two assists. Cora Taylor also added an assist for the Black & Gold.

The Braves (9-3-3, 8-0-3 CC) improved to 3-0-0 in the all-time series with the Tornado (1-10-2, 1-7-2 CC), and are now 6-1-1 on the year when playing at LREMC Stadium.
 
SCORING SUMMARY
23' Cora Taylor's shot was saved by the goalkeeper, deflected off the crossbar, and ricocheted to Anna Grossheim, who one-touched it home from an impossible angle side-net to put the hosts on the board first.
39' Grossheim dribbled to shake free for a shot and fired a perfect left-footed strike from just outside the penalty area to beat the King goalkeeper to make it 2-0.
49' Mercy Bell's centering pass found a wide open Grossheim at top of the six-yard box, who one-touched it home to make it a hat trick and a 3-0 lead.
55' A loose ball found the foot of Grossheim, who lofted a shot from just inside the penalty area into the back of the net to make it 4-nil.
61' Bell's shot was saved by the Tornado keeper, but the rebound went to a wide-open Grossheim in front of the net, who tapped it home for her record-breaking fifth goal.
63' Bell made a move to get free for a shot and unleashed a left-footed rocket to find the back of the net from 20 yards out to give the match its 6-0 result.
