Blue Streaks Strike Five Times and Blank Beaumont in Opener

Magnificat opened its season with an emphatic 5-0 victory over Beaumont on Aug. 15, turning an early corner kick into the breakthrough and rolling from there at Karnatz Family Field at Magnificat High. The Blue Streaks scored twice before halftime, added three goals in the second half and completed the shutout without needing a save.

The decisive surge began during the opening 15 minutes. A right-side corner kick created a ricochet in front of goal, where Carly Dudek finished the opportunity on a well placed kick beating the goalie to the right side.. Magnificat doubled the advantage in the 16th minute when No. 26 Kalli Sdrakas unleashed a powerful right-footed shot from just inside the left side of the box. The ball beat the goalkeeper and drove into the far corner, giving the Blue Streaks a 2-0 halftime lead.

Magnificat quickly carried that energy into the second half. No. 11 Lexi Hradek struck a shot from the middle that hit the crossbar, deflected off the goalkeeper and crossed the line for the third goal. During a two-goal burst between the 61st and 75th minutes, a corner from Lexi led to a deflection and a headed finish by Carly Dudek. The final goal came when Teagan Mulloy met a beautiful pass from the left wing and converted a left-footed one-timer inside the box.

The individual production reflected a complete attacking effort. Lexi Hradek recorded one goal and one assist, Kalli Sdrakas also contributed one goal and one assist, and Teagan Mulloy added a goal.
