DALLAS- SMU scored four second-half goals en route to a 6-1 victory over Fresno State on Sunday afternoon at Westcott Field.
The loss was the fourth straight for the Bulldogs (3-6-2, 0-2-0 WAC), while the Mustangs (9-2-0, 2-0-0 WAC) have now won four matches in a row to remain atop the conference standings.
SMU's Kim Harvey registered a hat trick in the win, scoring two goals in the second half along with the game's first score in the third minute. Teammate Jill Heinemann also scored twice for the Mustangs.
The Bulldogs were outshot 18-8 in the loss and were limited to just one corner kick in the contest. SMU tallied seven corner kick opportunities.
Trailing 2-0 at the half, SMU increased its lead to 5-0 following Harvey's third goal of the afternoon. Eleven seconds later, Fresno State senior Erin Sayegusa (Honolulu, Hawaii) knocked in her first goal of the season with an unassisted shot from the top of the box. Sayegusa's goal ended a three-match scoreless streak for the 'Dogs.
Sayegusa and sophomores Barbara Davis (Fresno, Calif.) and Katri Nokso-Koivisto (Kokkola, Finland) each recorded two shots in the game.
Goalkeeper Jeannette Paine (Kelowna, British Columbia) made five saves in the loss. Fresno State, which has not played at home since Sept. 17, returns to Bulldog Stadium to host Boise State on Friday at 7 p.m. The Bulldogs then wrap up the weekend with a road match at Nevada on Sunday.
