Kastor scores twice in KU soccer victory

By Staff Reports     Sep 8, 2012

Caroline Kastor scored twice and assisted on another goal as the Kansas University soccer team took down Missouri State, 4-1, Friday at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.

Jamie Fletcher and Ashley Williams added KU’s other goals.

The Jayhawks’ offense got off to a hot start on a cool night when Fletcher scored in the seventh minute off a Kastor cross. The two Jayhawks combined to score again in the 12th minute as Kastor knocked a Fletcher assist past the Bears goalkeeper.

Three minutes into the second half, Kastor sank her second goal for a 3-0 lead on a night when KU outshot MSU, 17-5 overall and 8-1 on goal.

The Bears’ lone goal came less than a minute later, early in the second half, on a 25-yard lob shot over KU goalie Kat Liebetrau.

The Jayhawks’ freshman forward, Williams, capped the scoring with a penalty kick in the 64th minute, her Big 12-leading sixth goal of the season. Williams has at least one goal in KU’s last three games.

The Jayhawks (5-1-1) will match up with North Carolina State at noon on Sunday at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.
