MILWAUKEE -- Sophomore forward Kelsey Kochanowski (Oak Creek, Wis.) tallied five goals and an assist as Alverno College cruised to a 6-0 victory over visiting Mt. Mary College this afternoon at Alverno Field. Kochanowski's 11 points set a new single-game school record, held previously by the program's all-time leading scorer, Ellie LaFond, who had 10 points on two occasions in her career.
"Ellie LaFond graduated after last season and she was our all-time leading scorer," Alverno head coach Brittany Nikolic said, "Someone has to pick up some of those goals, and obviously, so far Kelsey is ready to do that. It was a great start to see her take it on her shoulders and go after it."
Starting off the 2010 season with a bang, Kochanowski scored five-straight goals in the game--which ties the single-game record LaFond set in 2008. She put the Inferno (1-0) on the board early, finding the back of the net in less than eight minutes on an unassisted score.
