Ephs record first shutout victory over Springfield, 2-0 - September 18, 2008
SPRINGFIELD, MA - The team traveled a quick ninety minutes for a mid-week non-conference match up against Springfield College this evening. Moving up three spots in the national polls since their last contest, the fifth-ranked Williams women’s soccer team (3-0) tallied their third victory of the season against the Pride with a 2-0 result.
The Pride’s most recent memory of the Ephs came last fall when Williams ousted Springfield from the NCAA Division III Championships in the second round, 1-0. Hoping to avenge the loss, the Pride played strong on the defensive end but failed to create any offense against an equally tough back third of the field from Williams. Williams dealt Springfield their first home loss since October 14, 2006.
“I thought we possessed the ball very well,” said Ephs head coach Michelyne Pinard. “They have a very organized back four, and it is hard to get in behind them but we managed to venture and attack their third very well. It was an overall great game.”
The Ephs found the back of the net early at the 12:39 mark when Brianna Wolfson capitalized off a loose ball outside the box. Wolfson easily maneuvered past her defender and the Pride’s goalkeeper for the game-winning score. Williams came out in the second period with a quick goal once again. Gabrielle Woodson laced a high ball to the far right corner to solidify a 2-0 lead nearly five minutes into the half.
Lauren Sinnenberg and Julia Schreiber split time for the Ephs, while Sinnenberg gets credit for the Ephs’ first shutout victory with the start. Sue Jenney saw ninety minutes of action, with 5 saves and two goals allowed.
Williams will return to conference play when they host Bowdoin this Saturday at 12:30. |
