Montclair, NJ - The Red Hawks, still with depleted roster took care of their conference opponent Rutgers-Camden 3-1 on Saturday afternoon, thanks to sophomore EMILY BEENDERS two goals.

Montclair State's excellent first-half ended with a bang, due to midfielder MADDY MCLELLAND's superb one touch volley with just four minutes remaining in the period.

Although the Red Hawks were the better side in the first-half, Rutgers-Camden controlled the match from the opening whistle but were held to zero shot.

McLelland's '41 stunner volley from junior forward SOPHIE CALVERLEY cross gave Pat Naughter's side the lead going into the half.

Midfielder MICHAELA KNOBLOCK continued her impressive display with a great pull-back pass to Beenders for  a sweet finish in the '47, giving the Red Hawks a comfortable 2-0 lead. The Scarlet Raptors responded in the '55 with a goal of their own after Cassidy Sorley thru ball found freshman forward Meghan Wachira, who controlled it before finishing.

Sophomore midfielder CHRISTINE MAYORGA, who was playing the secondary striker assisted in Beenders '72 laser shot over the keeper, making it 3-1.

The Red Hawks are now 3-3-2, 2-0 in NJAC, while the Scarlet Raptors moves to 3-5, 0-2 in NJAC play.

Montclair State are on the road tomorrow against the College of Staten Island at 1:00 PM
