Cortes Scores Twice in 5-2 Defeat to Immaculata

La PLUME, Pa. - Sept. 27, 2018 - Senior Nisa Cortes (Schenectady, N.Y./Schenectady) netted two goals for the Keystone College women's soccer team on Thursday but the Giants fell to visiting Immaculata University 5-2 in non-conference action.

With the defeat, Keystone falls to 1-8-0 on the year and drops to 1-9-2 against the Mighty Macs since 2008. Immaculata improves to 3-5-0.

Following an Immaculata goal in the 10th minute, the Giants trailed 1-0 at halftime. Cortes scored her first of the day and second of the year just 16 seconds into the second half, thanks to an assist by junior Hayden Richner (Nicholson, Pa./Mountain View), for the equalizer.

The Mighty Macs netted goals in the 67th and 70th minutes to go ahead 3-1 before Cortes enjoyed her second of the day and third of the season in the 79th minute - off an assist from sophomore Faith Shiffer (Pine Grove, Pa./Pine Grove).

Immaculata went on to score in the 85th and 88th minutes as the Mighty Macs outshot Keystone 28-6. Cortes led the Giants with three shots.

Junior keeper Rebekah Shepherd (South Canaan, Pa./Western Wayne) made 10 saves - her seventh match this season with double-digit stops.

Keystone will host Centenary (N.J.) in a CSAC contest on Saturday, Sept. 29 at 1 pm.
