Pitt forward Amanda West made program history in the Panthers’ first game of the 2021 season on Thursday, as she gained sole possession of the program record for career goals by scoring her 24th. West entered the game tied with former Pitt forward Ashley Cuba at 23 goals apiece, but she surpassed her about 20 minutes into the contest.
The historic goal came in Pitt’s season-opening 3-0 shutout of Tulsa in Stillwater, Oklahoma, on Thursday. With Pitt up 1-0 on a goal by former WPIAL star Ellie Coffield in the 17th minute, West was awarded a free kick just outside the Golden Hurricane goal box.
