RINDGE, N.H. (January
19, 2002) - Franklin Pierce University
women's soccer standout
April Mann (Brisbane, Australia/Saint Thomas More)
netted her second goal of the series as the Australian National
Team finished off a three-game sweep of South Korea with
a 4-1 win in game three of the 2002 Australia Cup in front
of 2,479 at Tom Flood Sports Centre in Bendigo, Australia.
Australia had already
clinched its third-consecutive Cup with a 1-0 win in Albury
on Wednesday, the Matildas pressured Korea all night.
Mann put Australia
on the board in the 29th minute when she stabbed at a loose
ball and placed it into the net for a 1-0 lead. It was Mann's
third goal in just six international appearances. She netted
the Aussie's lone goal in a 1-0 win in game one of the series
last Sunday and tallied the Matildas Cup-clinching goal
against France in the 2001 Australia Cup.
Korea evened the match
in the 41st minute, but Australia controlled the second
half with three unanswered goals.
Mann was an All-Northeast-10
Conference forward for the Ravens this past season and she
finished second in the Conference with 47 points as she
totaled 17 goals (four gamewinners) and 13 assists.
Franklin Pierce wrapped
up its 2001 season with a 22-1 record and ranked No. 4 in
the final National Soccer Coaches Association of America
(NSCAA) Division II poll. The Ravens 22 wins set a school
record and matched the NCAA Division II mark. FP
advanced
to the NCAA Division II Final Four for a record tenth-straight
season, but had its quest for a record sixth National Championship
dashed in the semifinals.
