No. 15 - Schepler nets hat trick in 5-1 win over UNC Asheville
FULL STORY

Senior Danielle Schepler scored three goals in the span of seven minutes to propel the High Point University women's soccer team to a 5-1 win over UNC Asheville in Big South action on Oct. 6 at Vert Stadium.

Schepler had two goals in her High Point career before coming off the bench and netting goals in the 21st, 23rd and 28th minutes of play. The hat trick by Schepler was the first by an HPU women's soccer player since Kelli Joline notched three goals in a win over Gardner-Webb on Oct. 9, 2010.

UNC Asheville took an early 1-0 lead in the game. In the 17th minute Schepler checked in to the game and quickly turned the game in HPU's favor with three goals.

Sophomore Jacky Kessler managed to turn the corner on her defender on the right flank and hit a low cross which the Asheville goalie dove to try and hit away. The rebound fell right to the feet of Schepler who deposited the ball into the net for her first score of the season.

Schepler picked up her second goal of the game just 88 seconds later when she scored on a breakaway against the Bulldogs keeper to put HPU ahead, 2-1. Becca Hemby hit a long ball over the top of the Asheville backline for Schepler to run onto. The forward made a run off the back shoulder of the defender and avoided the Asheville keeper. The defender and keeper collided, allowing Schepler to score with a shot on an empty net.

Schepler completed her hat trick in the 28th minute off a through ball from junior Taylor Parker. Parker played the ball between Schepler and junior Kelli Joline along the Asheville backline. Joline dummied the ball after coming back from an offsides position allowing Schepler to run onto the pass and score with a shot from 15-yards away.

HPU won the game by a final score of 5-1.  Schepler finished the season with four goals and three assists.
