PLATTSBURGH — Freshman Taylor Carillo (Pine Bush/Pine Bush) and No. 23-ranked Buffalo State registered a shutout for the eighth-consecutive game, shutting down the league’s top offense to defeat host Plattsburgh 2-0 today in SUNYAC action.
Catherine Mammoser (Eden/Eden) opened the scoring, netting her fourth of the season in the 22nd minute. She raced after a long through ball and after the charging keeper’s clearing attempt deflected off Mammoser’s shin, she calmly chipped it into the empty goal. Melissa Smith (N. Tonawanda/Niagara Wheatfield) added an insurance marker with five minutes remaining, tallying her team-leading ninth goal of the season. Carillo made five saves for her ninth shutout of the year and extended her school-record shutout streak to 799 minutes and 55 seconds. The Bengals outshot the Cardinals 17-6 for the game and held an 8-1 advantage in corner kicks.
The win moved the Bengals five points clear of Geneseo and Oneonta for first place in the SUNYAC with three games remaining.
Buffalo State will visit Potsdam Saturday at 1 p.m.
