Kailyn Dudukovich scores the second hat trick of her career

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio State sprinted out of the gate and dominated from start to finish in a 4-0 rout of visiting Milwaukee on Thursday night at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium.

Kailyn Dudukovich led the Buckeyes (2-0-0) with the second hat trick of her career and the 20th in program history. She scored goals in the sixth, 23rd and 31st minutes and nearly added a fourth in the 32nd minute. Dudukovich now has four goals on the season and 29 for her career.

Freshman Jadin Bonham continued to impress with a pair of assists in the match, assisting both Kailyn Dudukovich and sophomore Amanda Schlueter.

In goal, transfer Adren La-Rose made her Buckeye debut in the second half, earning a combined shutout with starter Molly Pritchard.

Kailyn Dudukovich scored early with a goal in the sixth minute. With a pass from Schlueter, Dudukovich chipped the goalkeeper, earning her first of the night.

Not long after, in the 23rd minute, Dudukovich once again found the back of the net off a pass from Ella Giannola. The West Chester, Ohio native beat a fully extended Milwaukee goalkeeper to the back post.
