Ephs stave off Mules, 1-0

Box Score

WATERVILLE, ME. - The best sports teams find a way to win, period.  Even when they are not playing their best, they manage to get the W. 

Williams women's soccer (11-0-0, 7-0-0) did not play like the #1 team in the nation this weekend, but their victories this weekend proved why they are.  The Ephs eked out another 1-0 victory over the Colby Mules (4-6-1, 1-5-1) in their second conference win in as many days. 

“Overall it was not our best weekend of soccer,” said Williams' head coach Michelyne Pinard.  “We still got the results we needed, and we are looking forward to getting better in the weeks to come.”

Williams was able to improve their offensive opportunities today.  Managing only six shots on goal in yesterday's contest against Tufts, the Ephs recorded 24 shots this afternoon.  Their opportunities may have increased, but still only tallied one goal. 

Brianna Wolfson scored her fifth goal of the season at the 8:23 mark, assisted by Tyler Rainer.  The quick goal boded well for the Ephs but the team could not translate the early momentum into further success.  One goal proved to be all Williams needed for victory.

The Ephs have only two days of practice to work on their play, as they host Keene State this Wednesday at 3:30 on Cole Field.
