Waterloo 0 at Laurier 5
WATERLOO, Ont. (Oct. 4, 2013) - The Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks women's soccer team was looking to recover from a two game winless streak, their longest of the season, Friday evening when they hosted the Waterloo Warriors. The Hawks would get the win and then some as they cruised to a 5-0 victory thanks to a very special offensive performance.

The Hawks wasted no time ensuring they got on the board with Emily Brown of Waterloo, Ont., netting her fifth goal of the season at the seven minute mark of the game. That was just a taste for Brown who would go on to add markers in the 20th and 43rd minutes to send the Hawks into the half with a three goal advantage over the Warriors.

In the second half it quickly became apparent that Brown intended to repeat her OUA top goal scorer performance from last season in a single game as she added two more early in the half to give the Hawks their final tally of five. With her performance, Brown set a Golden Hawks record for most goals in a single game and vaults herself into second place in the OUA scoring race. The previous record of four goals was set by Tammy Scurr of Kitchener, Ont., back in 2003 against these same Warriors.

Earning the shutout for the Hawks was keeper Maggie Carmichael of Orono, Ont., who faced four shots in the game.

Laurier will now look to Sunday when they host the Windsor Lancers. Windsor dealt the Hawks one of their two losses this season and the purple and gold will be out looking to return the favour to the Lancers. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. at University Stadium.

RMC 0 at Queen’s 8
KINGSTON, Ont. (October 2, 2013) - In their second straight 8-0 win, the No. 7 Gaels bested the RMC Paladins at the West Campus Field on Wednesday night.

Breanna Burton (Ottawa) opened the floodgates in the 17^th minute, when she took a pass from Rachel Radu (Ottawa) in stride, stepped around Paladins keeper Emily Barnard, and buried the ball into the empty net. Chipping the keeper from 25 yards out, Radu got a goal of her own in the 20^th minute. Burton added another first-half tally, tapping in a cross from Jennifer Siu (London, Ont.) in the 34^th minute.

Riley Filion (Alexandria, Ont.) finished another Siu cross to make it 4-0 at halftime, and netted another early in the second frame, giving her five goals in her last two games.

The Paladins' best chance came in the 72^nd minute, after the referee called a handball against Alex Blanchard (North Vancouver, B.C.) inside the Gaels 18-yard box, giving RMC a penalty kick. Rhianna Koopman's attempt missed the left post by inches.

The Gaels finished the game with a pair of goals from Monique Czaczkowski (Thunder Bay, Ont.) and a last-minute blast from Brittany Almeida (Elginburg, Ont.).

On Homecoming weekend, the Gaels (6-1-3) host the No. 1 Ottawa Gee-Gees (8-0-2) on the West Campus Field at noon on Saturday.

Western 4 at Windsor 0
WINDSOR, Ont. – Goals from four different players helped the Western Mustangs women's soccer team continue their unbeaten season with a 4-0 shutout victory over the Windsor Lancers on Wednesday night.

With the win the Mustangs remain in first place in the OUA West and improve to 6-0-4 on the season while the Lancers fall to 4-4-2. It was also Western's second win of the year against Windsor as the Mustangs posted a 6-0 victory at TD Stadium on the season's opening weekend.

Lauren Winquist, Amanda Boyle, Sarah Deakin and Aoi Ichiyama contributed the offence in the win with Tori Edgar recording her sixth shutout of the season.

Winquist put Western on the scoreboard early in the first half netting a goal at the 13-minute mark. Before the break Boyle increased the Mustangs lead as she racked up the second goal of the game and her fifth of the season to make it 2-0 Western heading into the break.

The Mustangs momentum continued into the second half and Deakin added Western's third goal of the game at the 57-minute mark. Ichiyama followed up just four minutes later with a fourth consecutive Western goal, giving the team a 4-0 advantage over the Lancers. Despite Windsor's best efforts to respond, the Lancer's were unable to sneak past the strong Mustangs defence, and the game concluded with a 4-0 shutout victory for Western.

The Mustangs will be back in action Sunday, Oct. 6, at 1:00 p.m. as they travel to Guelph to face-off against the Gryphons.

Wesmen-Spartans Stats

by Mark Janzen, TWU Sports Information

LANGLEY, BC – The Trinity Western Spartans extended its undefeated streak to five games with a 5-0 win over Winnipeg Friday at Rogers Field.

Hosting the Wesmen for the first time since Winnipeg's women's soccer team joined the Canada West conference last year, TWU (3-1-3) proved to be the superior side early and often as it was the Spartans maintaining pressure almost entirely throughout the contest.

Vaness Kovacs got a head to a corner kick in the second minute as she found the back of the net for the Spartans first goal of the night and sparked what turned into a five-goal barrage. Also scoring for the Spartans was Jessica King (Liverpool, England), who netted two, as well as Krista Gommeringer (Calgary) and Alicia Tesan (Vancouver).

The Wesmen (1-7-0) battled well, but couldn't keep up with a TWU side that was determined to earn back-to-back win for the first time all year. After starting the year a tie with UBC and loss to Victoria, the Spartans are now 3-0-2 over their last five games.

The Spartans are back in action Saturday when they will host Manitoba at 5 p.m. The game can be seen at twu.canadawest.tv.

The Wesmen also return to the pitch Saturday as they will travel to play UBC at 5 p.m.

Dennis was credited the game winner, while rookie keeper Austin Studer made her CIS debut in the second half of the game.
