Goals from Agnew, Caloia Propel No. 21 Women’s Soccer Past Monmouth, 4-1

WEST LONG BRANCH, N.J. – Two goals apiece from senior Murphy Agnew and junior Angela Caloia propelled No. 21 Harvard University women's soccer past Monmouth University, 4-1, on Sunday afternoon at Hesse Field on the Great Lawn.
 
The nationally ranked Crimson (4-0-1) scored twice in the final 21 minutes of the first half and added two more goals inside the final 15 minutes of the second stanza to top the host Hawks (4-3-0) – winners of the MAAC tournament for four straight seasons from 2016-19. The Crimson maintained an undefeated record through the first five matches of the season for the first time since 1996.
 
Agnew opened the game's scoring at the 24:51 mark, scoring off an assist from junior Ava Lung. Heading into halftime, Caloia doubled the Crimson's lead to 2-0 in the 44th minute with assists from first-years Josefine Hasbo and Nicola Golen. The Hawks cut the margin to 2-1 in the 50th minute on a goal from Lauren Karabin before Caloia extended the Crimson's advantage back to two goals with a tally in the 76th minute off an assist from sophomore Taylor Fasnacht. Agnew capped the scoring with a marker in the 86th minute.
