PDL DYNAMO 2 - 0 NASHVILLE - STORY COMING SOON.
W-LEAGUE DYNAMO 3 - 0 West Virginia Illusion.
FAIRMONT, W.Va. (June 7, 2008)–ILLUSION DERAILED BY CAROLINA. Three goals in the first half-hour
carried the Carolina Dynamo (2-3-1) to an easy 3-0 victory over the West
Virginia Illusion (0-5-0).
Katie Andreski paced the Dynamo with one goal and an assist on three
shots, while Megan Mischler and Sydney Metheny each had a shot for the
Illusion.
Andreski wasted no time putting the Dynamo ahead, breaking down the left
side and banking a shot in off of the far post in the seventh minute.
The Illusion nearly got back on level pegging in the 17^th minute;
Michelle Molinari’s corner kick from the right side was headed sharply
by Megan Mischler, but was cleared off the line by a Dynamo defender.
Andreski turned provider in the 21^st minute, beating a defender on the
right side and playing a low cross in to Tessa Hall at the far post for
an easy tap-in.
Hall picked up her second goal in the 29^th minute, finishing off a
cross from Hailey Beam.
Illusion forward Sydney Metheny was unlucky for the second game in a
row, hitting the crossbar in the 62^nd minute. Metheny was denied the
tying goal last week against the Carolina RailHawks by the woodwork.
Mischler was denied on a 16-yard shot by a full-extension save from
Dynamo goalkeeper Lauren Brown in the 68^th minute.
Illusion defender Kelsey Fowler drew a straight red card for a tackle in
the 75^th minute; Brown was also given a yellow card.
The Illusion begin a month-long road trip next Thursday when they visit
the Bradenton Athletics. The team’s next home game is July 11 against
the Richmond Kickers Destiny at 7:30 p.m.
