Box Score

 

PITTSBURGH, Pa. (Sept. 7) – After falling behind early, the Waynesburg University women's soccer team came back to win its first game of the season by the final score of 2-1 at La Roche.

 

The Redhawks (0-3) took a 1-0 lead into halftime, but the Jackets tied the game at 1-1 on a goal by junior forward Courtney Ebersole with 26:33 to go in the game. Freshman Susie Godwin assisted on the game-tying score. With the game tied at 1-1 and 13:27 left in the game, junior Terrin Crist buried the game-winning goal on an assist from Ebersole to seal the deal.

 

Junior keeper Katrina Kelly made four saves in net to lead her team to victory.

 

The win was the first women's victory for new head coach Sean McCarthy. Earlier in the day, McCarthy led the Waynesburg men to their first victory of the season, and his first win as a collegiate head coach.

 

The Jackets will look to keep the winning ways going on Thursday, Sept. 9, when they host Point Park.
