GETTYSBURG, Pa. – Shaina Wright (Gettysburg,
PA/Gettysburg) assisted Katie Myers (Randallstown, MD/WSTES)
on the game-winning goal and collected an insurance goal to lead Gettysburg over
Franklin & Marshall 2-0 in Centennial Conference (CC) action on Tuesday night.
Wright’s goal and assist were the first in her career.
Myers’ goal gave her six in the last six games and was her fourth consecutive
game with a goal.
Wright’s
assist came in the 22nd minute on a pass through the Diplomat defense that Myers
ran on to. The reigning CC Player of the Week dribbled twice and beat the goalie
low for her second game-winning goal of the season. Myers’ goal came on
her third shot of the game, after the first two had found posts.
Megan Murphy (Stony Brook, NY/Ward Melville)
assisted on Wright’s second-half goal, playing a long cross from the right side
that bounced through traffic. Wright volleyed the cross just under the crossbar
to give the Bullets a security tally.
Danielle
St.Pierre (Londonberry, NH/Trinity) made two saves in the Gettysburg goal
en route to her first collegiate shutout.
The
Bullet defense, led by Kristin Igusky (Sinking Spring, PA/Holy Name),
Laurie Goon (Baltimore, MD/Loch Raven), Katie Yamamoto (Hollis,
NH/Hollis-Brookline) and Murphy limited the Diplomat attack to three shots
in the game.
Franklin &
Marshall goalie Robyn Jones made six saves in the losing effort.
