Dallas, PA (9/17/11) – Junior forward Kate Norgard (Columbia, NJ / North Warren) scored a pair of goals as 20th-ranked Montclair State remained unbeaten with a 5-0 victory over Misericordia University at Mangelsdorf Field on Saturday afternoon.

Junior Michelle Hagel (Fairfield, NJ / West Essex) collected a pair of assists as the Red Hawks improved to 6-0 on the year with victory in the first of their weekend games in Pennsylvania. On Sunday, Montclair travels to Wilkes-Barre, PA to face King’s at 1:00 pm.

In the second half however, Montclair exploded for four goals. Brittany Carroll (Kingston, NY / Rondout Valley) registered an unassisted tally and Jennifer Tafro (Little Falls, NJ / Passaic Valley) added a goal to make the score 3-0. Allison Jillions (Hainesport, NJ / Holy Cross) finished off a pass from Hagel for the fourth goal before Norgard closed out the scoring with her second of the game with Molly Hartman (Pemberton, NJ / Pemberton) picking up the assist.
