Women’s Soccer Drop MASCAC Matchup with Worcester

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The MCLA Women's Soccer team welcomed the Worcester State Lancers to Shewcraft Field this evening a MASCAC clash. Addison Hayer notched her first collegiate goal for the Trailblazers, while six different Lancers combined to score nine goals for the visitors.

THE BASICS:

• Date: Friday, September 26, 2025
• Score: Worcester 9, MCLA 1
• Records: Worcester State University Lancers 6-2-1 (MASCAC 4-0-0) | MCLA Trailblazers 2-6-0 (MASCAC 1-2-0)
• Series History: Worcester State now leads the all-time series 26-7-2, including a 4-1 win last season in Worcester on October 12, 2024. MCLA won the first ever meeting of the teams by a score of 10-0 on September 21, 1991, in North Adams.

HOW IT HAPPENED

• Worcester State jumped out to an early 3-0 lead on goals from Nora Wanamaker (3^rd minute, assisted by Ella Tatarczuk), Ava Lemanski (18^th minute, unassisted), and Wanamaker (18^th minute, Jessica Forbes) again.
• MCLA clawed one goal back in the closing seconds of the first half, starting with a free kick by Catelyn Hodge (Schenectady, NY) that went over the top of the defense to feed Gwendolyn Duggan (Palmer, MA) for the Trailblazers' first shot of the evening. The shot was high, bouncing off the crossbar but directly to the foot of Addison Hayer (Adams, MA) in front of a wide open net. Hayer wasted no time with putting the ball in the net before the keeper could recover.
• The second half was tilted in the direction of the guests, with the Lancers adding on six more goals. The first two going to Olivia Magierowski (50^th minute, unassisted and 57^th minute, Lemanski), and the subsequent goals going to Lemanski (60^th minute, unassisted), Shaen Smith (74^th minute, unassisted), Erin Condon (75^th minute, unassisted), and Sophie Farr (80^th minute, unassisted).
• Worcester State's Ella Gumienny only needed to make one stop to improve her record to 5-2-1. MCLA's Destiny Alexandra Rivas (Leicester, MA) made 11 first half saves, but still saw her record fall to 2-5-0. Mallory Amirian (Haverhill, MA) added 11 more stops in the second half.
