- The Tiger women's soccer team snapped its season-opening
two-game losing streak with a 3-0 shutout victory over the
University of Texas-Tyler on Friday night.
Trinity (1-2-0) had never started the season with
two losses since before the 1991 season. The Tigers took a 2-0
halftime lead after scoring a goal in the final seconds of the first
half.
Robyn Brooks took a free kick in the waning
seconds and lofted in front of the UT-Tyler net, and Chelsea Wilson
was able to convert as time expired on the first period.
Jennifer Wray scored the eventual game-winner
in the 23rd minute on an assist from Michelle Grambeau. Wray
also assisted on the third and final goal of the night - a header
from Claire Edwards in the 73rd minute.
Jennifer Fifield recorded her first shutout of
the young season, tallying three saves in the process, and improving
her record to 1-2 this year. Fifield and the Tiger defense
yielded just four total shots in the game.
Trinity will face UT-Dallas on Sunday
afternoon, finishing off a three-game homestand. The Tigers
travel to Wheaton (IL) College on Monday, September 17 to take on
the defending NCAA Division III National Champions. |
