St. Mary's City, Md. – The St. Mary's
College of Maryland women's soccer team moved into a three-way tie
for first in the Capital Athletic Conference standings as the
Seahawks scored twice in a one-minute span to notch a 2-0 victory
over York College of Pennsylvania Saturday afternoon.
The teams were even on shots at 14 apiece while York (4-8-1, 4-2
CAC) held a 6-4 advantage in corner kicks. The Spartans
attacked feverishly in the first half but St. Mary's
counterattacked just as intensely. However, neither team was
able to get a shot on target.
It was more of the same in the second half until the 76th minute
when sophomore forward Dani Granholm
(Broomfield, Colo./Broomfield) put in a loose ball amidst a mad
scramble in front of the goal following a corner kick.
The Seahawks (4-5-1, 4-1 CAC) struck again at 76:22 as sophomore
forward Tori
Eskay (Damascus, Md./Urbana) slipped a ball through to
first-year midfielder Yvonne Latour
(Gaithersburg, Md./Quince Orchard) who booted a rocket just
underneath the crossbar.
First-year Kelsey Wirtz
(Parkton, Md./Hereford) recorded her second shutout of the season
with five stops while junior Sarah Spanarkel (Toms
River, N.J./Toms River North) picked up five saves in the loss.
