Tournament MVP Kim Stagg scored two second half goals as the University of Rochester pulled away for a 4-0 victory over Eastern Nazarene College in the Flower City Soccer Classic at Edwin Fauver Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
 
Stagg's two goals helped the Yellowjackets win the Flower City title on a tiebreaker of goal difference. Rochester was plus-six after the win. Union College, which defeated Fredonia, 3-2, in the first game Saturday, was plus three in two games.
 
Rochester's Sydney Melton was named the Defensive MVP. She was deemed the key defensive player in Rochester's back four. The Yellowjackets defeated Fredonia, 3-1, on Friday and posted the 4-0 shutout a day later.
 
Offensive MVP honors went to Emily Dahlstrom of Union College. In Union's 2-0 win over Eastern Nazarene on Friday, she scored the first goal. She had one goal on Saturday vs. Fredonia as well.
 
The other Rochester goals were scored by Laura Cowie-Haskell and Gabrielle D'Angelo – both in the first half.
 
It took 37 minutes for the Yellowjackets to break through the ENC defense, which was well organized as a unit. The Lions played a high defensive line and caught Rochester offsides several times.
 
Cowie-Haskell, who had a goal on Friday, broke the 0-0 deadlock at 36:31. A centering pass from Gabriella Goddette deflected away from Carolina Manent and rolled to Cowie-Haskell at the top right side of the penalty area. She dribbled a short distance and cracked a shot into the right corner of the net.
 
With less than a minute to play in the first half, the Yellowjackets tacked on a second goal. Goddette's pass down the left sideline sent DiAngelo racing clear of defenders. As she reached the end line, she hit it hard and low along the line. ENC goalkeeper Kristen Farley slid over to grab it – and did so – but her momentum carried her and the ball just over the end line for a Rochester goal.
 
Stagg netted her first goal at 50:16, driving it to the top left corner of the net after Emily Downie played the ball wide. At 68:17, she got her second goal, this one a 25-yarder from the top of the box to the top right corner after a pass from the left side was disrupted by the ENC defense.
 
Rochester goalkeeper Aubrey Jaicks made three saves in 69:06. Madilynne Lee played the final; 20:54. She did not record a save.
 
Farley made five saves for the Lions and ENC had one team save when a defender cleared the ball off the line.
