Box Score Orono, Maine -- Kaitlyn Ball tallied a pair of goals and was one of five Black Bears who scored on the evening as the University of Maine women's soccer team defeated Assumption, 6-0, in exhibition action at Mahaney Diamond.

Bailey found Byfield at the 35:19 mark for Maine's second goal, capitalizing from close range on the tally.

Naglestad scored the first of Maine's four second half goals at 52:02, taking a feed from Armitage and finding the back of the net.
