MINOT, N.D. – The Minot State University women's soccer team scored four goals Sunday afternoon against Minnesota State-Moorhead, and fittingly, all four goals were scored by seniors in their final home match at Herb Parker Stadium.

Just 16 seconds after the game started, Jamie Council (Sr., F, Atascadero, Calif.) received a through ball from Jamie MacFarlane (Sr., F, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) and placed the ball into the side netting giving the Beavers an early 1-0 lead. The goal was the 14th fastest goal ever recorded in NCAA Division II women's soccer history.

After heading to halftime leading by the lone goal scored in the first minute of play, Council notched her second goal of the match in the 54th minute after settling a deflected shot inside the 18.

MacFarlane decided to join one of her fellow seniors on the score sheet in the 70th minute after beating a defender on the right side of the box.

"I was kind of getting a little anxious," she said. "I really wanted to get one or two like I did. Once [Council] got one, I said there is no way I'm not getting one. I just kept calling for the ball and kept trying to get it, and it happened."

It took less than two minutes for MacFarlane to get her second goal of the game after running on to a perfectly weighted through ball from Kristin Long (Jr., M, Mesa, Ariz.). MacFarlane slotted the ball past the keeper before the keeper had a chance to make a play.

While the team pushed late in the game to get Taylor Bachman-Williams (Sr., D, Minot, N.D.) on the score sheet in her final home game as well, the referee blew for fulltime before she could do so and the match ended 4-0 in favor of the Beavers.

"It was an awesome day," head coach Jason Spain said. "I felt really happy for [the seniors]. "

Goalkeeper Celene Johnson (Jr., Rocklin, Calif.) needed to make just one save to secure her fourth shutout of the season.

Minot State will look to carry this momentum with them as they head into the NSIC postseason tournament as the No. 5 seed. The Beavers will travel to Upper Iowa this Wednesday for a quarterfinal match with the Peacocks. The Beavers fell in their previous match with the Peacocks this season, 2-1.

"We're 6-1 in the second half," Spain said. "We're playing really well. I think we got the team we wanted. We were really upset giving up that lead at Upper Iowa earlier in the year. I'm excited."
