The College of Wooster women’s soccer team went 2-0 this
past weekend against Cal-State Hayward University and the University
of the South at Sewanee, Tennessee. With the wins, the Scots remain
unbeaten with a record of 6-0-1.
On Saturday, Wooster battled Cal-State into overtime before coming
out on top 2-1. After a scoreless first, the Scots netted the first
goal of the game in the 57th minute as Sarah Schostarez
found the back of the net for her third goal of the season. Cal-State
answered thirteen minutes later as Ashley Shadd scored courtesy
of a Whitney Buchanan assist. The score remained 1-1 for the remainder
of regulation and four minutes into overtime until 94:07 as senior
Bethany Reiner was awarded a penalty kick. Reiner
shot the ball past Cal’s goalie to give Wooster the win. Junior
goalkeeper Rebecca Scina made five saves, allowing
one goal to record the victory.
On Sunday, the Scots were once again in action in Sewanee, this
time facing the home team, the University of the South. The Tigers
jumped on the board early, scoring the lone goal of the first half
just nine minutes into the game and led by that margin going into
the second period. The Scot offense came alive in the second half,
attacking the goal for 10 shots. Senior Sarah BonDurant
netted her first goal of the season at the 63:37 mark to tie the
score at 1-1. At 79:42, Laura Ayer also tallied
her first goal of the season via a corner kick by Danielle
Witchey to put Wooster ahead by one. Witchey sealed the
deal with a score of her own, her third on the season, when she
booted in a corner from Schostarez. For Schostarez, the assist was
her team-leading sixth of the season. Scina had a busy day, facing
17 shots and making nine saves to earn the win.
The Scots will be in action on Tuesday, Sept. 21, as Case Western
Reserve comes to Carl Dale Memorial Field for a non-conference match
up at 4:30 p.m.
