Vanderbilt Soccer Bounces Back, Beats Yale: The Anchor

Vanderbilt soccer bounced back Friday night with a 2-1 home win over Yale.

The game was tightly contested all the way through. The Commodores went up 1-0 shortly before halftime with a goal from Courtney Jones.

It seemed like Vanderbilt was on its way to a shutout victory until the 81st minute of the game when Vienna Lundstedt of Yale tied the game off an assist from JoJo DeNegri. It was just the second goal Vanderbilt has surrendered in its first five games so far this season.

But just when fans thought they were in for a tie, Adysen Armenta had other plans. With a little under three minutes to go, Armenta scored an unassisted game-winning goal to break Yale’s back and take a 2-1 lead.

The Commodores did a nice job all night defensively, allowing Yale to get off just two shots on net, including the goal the Bulldogs scored. Vanderbilt kept pressure on Yale all game with 13 shots on net. Yale goalie Kyla Holmes finished with 11 saves, but the ‘Dores 13th shot of the night is what put them over the top.

Vanderbilt goalie Sara Wojdelko only saw two shots in her 90 minutes of net-minding and she saved one of them.

Up next, Vanderbilt returns to its home field Thursday for a meeting with Georgetown on Sept. 4 at 7 p.m. CT. The game will be broadcasted on ESPN+.
