An offensive surge late in the first half propelled the Kansas soccer team to a 4-1 victory over the Busch Soccer Club Saturday at Super Target Field.
The Hawks will begin their regular season play on Friday when they play North Texas at home.
The win ends the Jayhawks' exhibition season with a 2-0 record, including a 5-1 victory over Southwest Missouri State on August 19.
"We started out very slow," coach Mark Francis said. "We made some substitutions, and I think that was key because the people that came in, especially [Natalie] Hoogveld and [Monica] Brothers up front, they made a lot of things happen."
Within one minute of being substituted in, Brothers scored on a sliding kick past the Busch goalkeeper, Kati Jo Spisak. Hoogveld provided the assist in the 35th minute to give the Jayhawks a 1-0 lead.
Just three minutes later, Brothers again scored on an assist by Hoogveld, which gave the Jayhawks a 2-0 advantage.
"I was just in the right place at the right time," Brothers said. "Hoops [Hoogveld] had two awesome crosses, and I was just there and got my foot in."
Brothers, a freshman forward, has scored three goals in the Jayhawks' two exhibition matches.
Francis said Brothers was a tough competitor.
"She works very hard when she's in there," he said. "You've got to have players like that, and Monica is definitely one of those players."
A minute after Brothers' second goal, senior forward Hilla Rantala notched up another score for the Jayhawks, the third in four minutes, and put the Jayhawks ahead 3-0.
Nicole Ilg scored the only goal for Busch, an 18-and-under traveling team, in the 40th minute of play.
In the second half, Rantala added her second goal off of a rebound in the 66th minute.
The game was hustled along early by sophomore midfielder Maggie Mason.
On a breakaway in the seventh
minute, Busch forward Jenny Nobis got around goalkeeper Sarah Gonzalez, but Mason made a goal-saving defensive block as she crashed into the goal post.
"She worked very hard to get back, and sacrificed to stop the ball from going in the net," Francis said.
Despite the Jayhawks' two exhibition victories by a combined score of 9-2, Francis said he wasn't sure his team was ready to face off against North Texas at the moment.
"We will be next Friday, though," Francis said. "There's some things we need to work on, but that's what practice is for."

Facility to begin a 'new era' in Kansas athletics donor says
By Randy Richardson Kansan sportswriter
The construction of a new weight training facility will mark the beginning of Kansas athletics director Allen Bohl's tenure, and a new era of Kansas athletics, donor Dana Anderson said Friday.
Anderson, a California real estate investor, gave $4 million to build the Anderson Family Strength and Conditioning Center next to Anschutz Sports Pavilion. He announced the donation at a press conference Friday in the Wagnon Student Athlete Center. The Endowment Association is searching for donors for the other $4.5 million needed to finish the project.
Anderson said the center's construction would mark the end of former Kansas athletics director Bob Frederick's 14-year tenure and the beginning of Bohl's.
Frederick resigned June 30.
"We wanted to give a positive send-off to Bob Frederick and do something to welcome Al Bohl aboard." Anderson said. "The strength and conditioning center serves everyone in athletics — women's sports, Olympic sports, golf — sports beyond basketball and football."
The center, expected to open next fall, will replace the Shaffer-Holland Strength Center, which is the smallest workout facility in the Big 12 Conference. The existing center is 6,000 square feet and was built in 1983.
The new center will cost about $8.5 million to build. It will be two stories high and have 25,000 square feet of space. The center will feature weight training equipment and a cardiovascular workout area.
Men's basketball coach Roy Williams, football coach Terry Allen and softball coach Traci Bingham each said that the new facility would help recruiting, especially when prospective athletes visiting KU would see they could work out in a modern facility.
Williams said the ShafferHolland center was not comparable with top-notch facilities he had seen.
"We've been way behind," Williams said. "I've seen a couple of the state-of-the-art weight facilities around the country. What we have now is nowhere near to what other people have. Hopefully this will put us in that ballpark where we won't have to take a back seat to anyone."
Football co-captain Nate Dwyer and softball player Amy Hulse said they were very thankful to the Anderson family for their donation to the new center.
Bohl said he hoped the new center would boost the morale of all student athletes.
"This is a great thing that's happening here. We have a lot of fundraising we're going to have to do. This is just the beginning. We thank the Andersons for being the flagship to get it started," he said.
