The Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) women’s soccer team put on a clinic Saturday afternoon at the OLLU Soccer Field, steamrolling the Jarvis Christian Bulldogs 6-0 in a complete team effort. From the opening whistle to the final seconds, the Saints dominated every facet of the game, overwhelming the visiting Bulldogs with relentless pressure, clinical finishing, and airtight defense.
It took less than three minutes for the Saints to get on the board. Eleonora Diversi wasted no time asserting herself, slotting in a goal at the 2:45 mark to ignite the scoring frenzy. Just six minutes later, Angela Garcia made it 2-0 with a well-placed finish off a sharp assist from Leah Tapia, showcasing the Saints seamless attacking rhythm.
Despite the early lead, OLLU didn’t take their foot off the gas. The Saints fired 28 shots on the afternoon, 11 on goal, while holding the Bulldogs to just two total shots and zero corner kicks. OLLU’s midfield controlled possession with poise and precision, suffocating any chance Jarvis Christian had to build momentum.
In the second half, the Saints continued to pour it on. Gabrielle De Leon extended the lead to 3-0 with a strike in the 77th minute, finishing a dominant buildup that left the Bulldogs chasing shadows. Diversi added her second goal of the day just four minutes later, capping off a stellar individual performance and making it 4-0.
With the result all but sealed, OLLU’s depth stepped in and delivered. Anisia Serrano netted the fifth goal at the 86:45 mark, continuing the offensive onslaught, and just a minute later, Mia Saenz added the final blow with a clean finish off an assist from Monica Sanchez to make it 6-0. The Saints bench erupted, a reflection of the team’s unity.
On the defensive end, goalkeeper London Suarez earned a well-deserved clean sheet, playing the full 90 minutes and recording two saves on the Bulldogs only shots on target. Her calm command of the back line helped preserve the shutout, marking yet another solid outing for the Saints defense, which has been one of the team’s quiet strengths all season.
With the win, OLLU continues to assert itself. The Saints will play against Thursday at 1:00 PM CDT at home against LSU-A.
