Posted: Oct 23, 2012

Waltham, Mass. (10/23/12) - The Lasell College women's soccer team lost, 3-1 at Brandeis University on Tuesday night. The loss drops the Lasers to 11-4 on the year, while the Judges improve to 12-3-1.

Freshmen Molly Masiero (Richmond, Mass.) scored the Lasell goal on an assist from junir Jill Greaney (Holyoke, Mass.), and keeper Leah Pappalardo (Whitman, Mass.) made 11 saves in the match. Brandeis saw three players find the net, getting goals from Dara Spital (Miami, Fla.) , Mathilde Robinson and Sapir Edalati. Michelle Savuto (Ridgewood, N.J.) stopped a pair of shots while earning the win.

Brandeis got the first four shots of the game before breaking through in the 21stminute. Rookie midfielder Sarah Isaacson (Medfield, Mass.)found sophomore forward Dara Spitalfive yards out of the top of the box. Spital blasted it in off the fingertips of Lasell keeper Leah Pappalardo. 

After Pappalardo made four saves on three different players to start the second half, Brandeis scored what proved to be the game-winner in the 63rdminute. Edalati tracked a ball down in the corner and sent a perfect cross through the goal mouth to a waiting Robinson, who one-timed it home for her first career goal.
As the game progressed, Brandeis looked to take control, but the Lasers had a key momentum shift in the 74thminute. Pappalardo was called for a foul inside the six-yard box, giving the Judges a penalty kick. The Lasell sophomore immediately atoned for the error by stopping the ensuing PK.
The Lasers went on to get their only three shots on goal over the next two minutes. Brandeis sophomore Michelle Savutomade saves on rookie Molly Masiero and sophomore Kayla Lynch (Dover, N.H.) in the 74thand 75thminutes. Masiero's chip in the 76thminute eluded Savuto, spoiling Brandeis's bid at a school-record 12thshutout of the season.
Lasell was able to keep momentum and work their way deep into the Brandeis zone, but the Judge defense kept the visitors from getting any quality chances. Brandeis added an insurance goal in the 87thminute when Edalati blasted a shot from about 35 yards out into the upper 90.
Brandeis returns to action on Friday afternoon with a University Athletic Association (UAA) contest against unbeaten and top-ranked Emory University at 4 p.m. Lasell's final regular-season Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) contest is Thursday at St. Joseph's (Maine) at 3 p.m.
