Why Penn State women’s soccer was encouraged by its weekend performance

Penn State embarked on an early season road trip to test its squad which proved to be beneficial as the Nittany Lions moved to 3-1 on the season after two wins this weekend.

Coach Erica Dambach’s squad looked comfortable in its two games in Southern California, scoring three goals in each of its games against Long Beach State and Loyola Marymount while keeping a clean sheet against the latter.

“Overall I was really pleased with our performance in both matches,” Dambach said.

She also highlighted the difficulties coming into the games.

“This was a really challenging trip and I was proud of the way that the players handled not only travel, but the heat, to come away with six points on the weekend,” she added.
