Returning to its winning ways, a hat trick from freshman Faith Graziano and solid contributions from 20 different players guided the Navy women's soccer team to a 3-0 victory over Marywood University on Tuesday afternoon at the Glenn Warner Soccer Facility.
 
Led offensively by Graziano's three-goal outing and Emily Clay's two assists, the Midshipmen also posted the clean sheet with a formidable backline and a combined shutout from Talley Applewhite and Cadence Tordai. As a team, Navy outshot Marywood by a 27-2 margin.
 
The Pacers started the contest by pushing the Mids' defense and controlling possession early, resulting in Carly Walters placing a shot on target in the sixth minute that required the Navy defenders kicking away a chance heading for the left post.
 
Navy quickly turned the tables and got its first shot past Marywood's goalkeeper in the 21st minute as Madison Whitworth's pass found Clay upfield, who then fed Graziano for a kick that rifled into the right side.
 
Trading possession after the restart, another Navy push found a loose ball knocked down by Graziano near the box, with the rookie launching another goal past Jenna Orr in the 25th minute.

After Clay sent a trio of shots wide trying to extend the lead, Graziano completed her hat trick and made it 3-0 when Clay crossed a pass into the box, with Graziano aiming a shot into the left side of the net at 38:41.
