Box Score  
KEENE, Texas - McMurry University women's soccer got the Charles Nobles coaching era off on the right foot, registering a 6-0 victory on the road over Southwestern Adventist University for its first-year head coach.  The War Hawks (1-0) led 2-0 at halftime and exploded for four second-half tallies versus the Knights (0-1).
 
After a sluggish start – easily attributed to 22 new roster players (eight of whom were in the starting line-up) – McM still managed to control all aspects of the match. The War Hawks out-shot SAU by a 33-1 margin.
 
Junior transfer Jolyn Noble had the honor of putting McM's first score of the year on the board in the 20^th minute off a pass from freshman Maddy Smith.  Just before the end of the half, returning junior Julissa Alvarez made it 2-0 with her first goal of 2017, with the assists going to freshman Emily Fisher.
 
Freshman Angelica Navarro would then put an exclamation point on the match with back-to-back goals just four minutes apart.  The first – in the 50^th minute – was assisted by returning junior Cristen Lumbreras, while the second – coming in the 54^th minute – was from Navarro's high school teammate Fisher.
 
Lumbreras then got into the act herself, notching a goal in the 75^th minute of action.  The assist was by Peyton Wood.  In the 80^th minute, freshman Wren Arevalo picked up her first collegiate goal as well, with Julia Renfrow assisting.
 
Sophomore goalkeeper Jordan Gregory played the first half in the McMurry nets, with newcomers Ashley Ray and Cindy Villasana splitting time the second hald, in earning the combined shutout.
