Box Score In a showdown of Mountain West women's soccer leaders, San Jose State scored a goal in each half to record a 2-0 victory over Colorado College on Sunday afternoon at Stewart Field.

First-year forward Darriell Franklin put the Spartans on the board in the 34th minute when she tapped a pass from freshman midfielder Daria Manzono into an open net after the CC defense was drawn toward the right side of the box.

The Tigers had an opportunity to tie the game midway through the second half, but freshman midfielders Madison Tominello's cross from the left side toward senior midfielder
Sarah Schweiss was touched out of harm's way by senior defender Rachel Docherty.

SJSU sophomore forward Dorthe Hoppius added an insurance tally with 1:56 to play when she won a 50-50 ball in the middle third and launched a bending shot from 28 yards that found the upper left corner.

Both teams had a difficult time producing quality scoring chances in the first half, when the Spartans held a slight 3-2 edge in total shots.

San Jose State controlled the run of play in the final 45 minutes and produced nine shots, compared to just one for Colorado College.

Senior goalkeeper Zoe Makrigiannis made one save for the Spartans, who improved to 7-5-2 overall and 5-1-0 in the Mountain West.

Junior keeper Louisa Mackenzie stopped two of the four shots she faced.

The Tigers slipped to 6-8-1 overall and 4-2-0 in the conference. CC is just one game behind both SJSU and San Diego State.

Colorado College hits the road next week for games at Boise State University and Utah State University on Friday and Sunday, respectively.
