ST. PAUL, Minn. - Catie Christoffel had three goals and two assists to lead the St. Olaf women's soccer team to a 6-3 win over host Hamline University on Saturday afternoon.

Christoffel's eight points rank as the most in an MIAC game this season and are the second-most for any player from the league in any game.

She scored the Oles' first, fourth and final goals in the game, and assisted on tallies from Jenny Kallas and Lindsay Howard.

St. Olaf (8-7-1, 5-3-1 MIAC) led 2-0 and 5-1 before HU got back-to-back goals in the 62nd and 66th minutes.

The Oles, who have an outside chance of making the four-team MIAC playoffs, host the University of St. Thomas on Wednesday and Carleton College on Saturday to close the regular season.
