PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. — The Plattsburgh State Cardinals closed out their home schedule in impressive fashion Wednesday afternoon, blanking the SUNY Cobleskill Tigers 3-0 in NCAA Division III women's soccer action at the Plattsburgh State Field House Complex. In the first-ever meeting between the two programs, Plattsburgh State controlled play from the opening whistle, generating sustained offensive pressure while limiting Cobleskill's opportunities. The victory provided a fitting conclusion to the Cardinals' regular-season home slate in front of 120 fans. The Cardinals struck early and never looked back. Lia Park opened the scoring in the eighth minute, finishing off a Plattsburgh attack to give the home side a 1-0 advantage. The goal rewarded a strong opening stretch, as the Cardinals spent much of the first half in the attacking third. Despite pressure throughout the contest, Cobleskill stayed within striking distance thanks to an outstanding effort from goalkeeper Sammy Fausti. The Tigers' netminder repeatedly turned away scoring chances and kept the deficit at a single goal for much of the afternoon. Plattsburgh State finally broke the match open late in the second half. Lauren Marotta doubled the Cardinals' lead in the 72nd minute before Lilley Keyser found the back of the net just one minute later, putting the game out of reach and extending the advantage to 3-0. While the offense generated the goals, the Cardinals were equally dominant on defense. Goalkeeper Desiree Dubois was tested only once and made the save, preserving the shutout behind a disciplined back line that gave Cobleskill little room to operate. Fausti finished with 23 saves, a remarkable performance despite constant pressure from the Cardinals' attack. With the win, Plattsburgh State heads into its regular-season finale at Cortland with momentum on its side, while Cobleskill will wrap up its season against Fredonia.Gallery
