Sophomores Jenna Dobkins and Samantha Aguilar and freshman Nicole Logan and Sarah Linsin all scored goals for the Bears to lead the Missouri State women’s soccer team to a 4-0 shut-out victory over Murray State on Wednesday afternoon in Murray, Ky. Missouri State improves to 4-2 with the win as Murray State drops to 1-3.
