Martinez scores three goals in Lady Matadors' 9-0 win over Glendale

YUMA, Ariz. – The No. 12 ranked Arizona Western Lady Matadors Women's Soccer team (5-1, 4-0) used a fast start to push its winning streak to four games with a 9-0 win over Glendale (2-4, 2-3) on Tuesday night at Matadors Soccer Field.

The Lady Matadors scored five of their nine goals in the first 20 minutes, grabbing the lead in the fourth when Ashly Martinez followed up a rebound, beating the keeper to put the Lady Matadors in front. Rikako Hayami added the Lady Matadors' second goal on penalty in the seventh minute. Cianna Thomas made it a 3-0 lead just two minutes later before Risui Arasaki scored the first of her two goals just a minute later.

Martinez added her second in the 18th minute to push the lead to 5-0 while Riley McQueenie came on as a substitute and scored the Lady Matadors' sixth goal. Arasaki and Chloe Brand added two more before the half.

After a lengthy lightning delay, the Lady Matadors finished the game off, adding one more goal from Martinez in the second half before the game was stopped in the 70th minute.
