WARRENSBURG, Mo. -- No. 12 Jennies soccer (16-2-4) defeated No. 8 Southwestern Oklahoma State University (20-1-1) 3-0 at a rainy South Recreation Complex Sunday afternoon. With the win, the Jennies advance to the Central Region Title Match and will battle Minnesota State University (17-1-3) Friday at 1 p.m. (CST) on the campus of Grand Valley State University in Allendale, Michigan. 

The Jennies took the 1-0 lead in the 19th minute of the match when Becky Lackey hammered a pass from Carly Stanley into the back of the net from 25 yards out. It's Lackey's seventh goal of the season and Stanley's fifth assist. Stanley picked up her team-high sixth assist just six minutes later when she found Alexis Robbers dashing towards the left side of the box. Robbers controlled the ball and slid it home for the 2-0 lead. The goal from Robbers is her team-high 10th of 2012.

The Jennies went into halftime with a 6-3 advantage in shots taken and 4-2 edge in corner kicks. 

After dishing out two assists in the first half, Stanley found herself on the receiving end of a Kayla Shain cross in the 60th minute. She converted on the right side of the box for her fifth goal of the season, giving the Jens a commanding 3-0 lead, a lead they would not relinquish the final 30 minutes.

Shain and Stanley both have a team-high six assists. 

The Jens out-shot the Bulldogs 10-4 in the match, including a 9-5 corner kick advantage. 

Jennies goalkeeper Morgan Hartzler went the full 90 between the pipes, making three saves, picking up her eighth shutout while improving her record to 9-1-2.
