The victory improves the Conquistadors to 5-5-2 on the season and 2-5-2 in KJCCC action.
The Conqs set the tone early, controlling possession and limiting Coffeyville's touches but it wasn't until the 21

Rinka Hayashi found
Sara Huertas Honrado for the first goal of the day. Huertas Honrado also played a part in the Conqs' second goal of the day, stealing the ball on a throw-in and moving past midfield to play it forward to
Sarah Rollow, who raced it down to fire off a shot and score, giving the Conqs a 2-0 lead at intermission.
The pace picked up in the second half as the Conqs continually rifled off shots with 15 in the half and controlled possession, leading to two more goals. In the 67
th minute,
Layla Moreno Cantalejo pushed the ball forward to
Lucia Bennett, who set up a quick pass to Rollow, who tallied her second goal of the game. Little over 10 minutes later, the Conqs made another run, and Moreno Cantalejo sent a cross into the box that found the foot of
Emily Snowden, who scored her first goal of the season and the fourth of the day for the Conqs, helping them to the 4-0 win.
