Ava Matherne got free on that same right wing in the 41st minute, crossing the ball all the way to the far post. A waiting Kinsten Evans tapped home her first goal of the season for a 2-0 halftime lead.
Reagan Fitzgerald buried a third goal with her left foot in the 60th minute. Just over two minutes later, Sinoxolo Cesane scored an insurance tally, stretching the lead to 4-0.
The Terriers scored their lone goal in the 74th minute.
The Bucs out-shot the visitors 21-10 and took nine corner kicks to the Terriers’ two.
Blue and Gold Keeper Ashton Blair made four saves in the victory, as well.
ETSU (8-2-4, 4-1-1 SoCon) remains home for a Thursday tilt with UNC-Greensboro. The Match is set for 6 p.m.
