How good is the Rutgers Women’s Soccer team? Real good. As in really, really good. The Ladies put forward a tore de force offensively against the Temple Owls, shutting them out 7-0 to improve to 5-0 on the season. It marks the third time in the last four seasons that the Scarlet Knights opened the season 5-0 dating back to 2019. Last season Rutgers started the year 6-0.

Seven different players scored goals on Thursday night, including an incredible corner kick by Kylie Daigle that sliced into the net at the 47:42 mark that put Rutgers up 3-0.

Sam Kroeger, Emily Mason, Becci Fluchel, Allie Post, Hailey Gutowski, Mallory McGuire also scored for Rutgers in the victory.

Rutgers outshot the Owls 19-0 as the Rutgers defense totally shutdown Temple’s offense and kept it from getting anywhere near goalie Megan McClelland who played 75 minutes to earn her 38th career shutout.
