The College of Wooster's Liz Mott booted in a goal early
in the second half, accounting for the lone score of
Saturday's non-conference women's soccer match at Alma
College, as the visiting Fighting Scots prevailed 1-0 over another
group of Scots. Alma has the same nickname for its athletic
teams.
Entering off of its first loss of the season, Wooster (7-1) played
a scoreless first half, but it took just 35 seconds for the
Fighting Scots to get on the board during the second. Mott took a
pass from fellow forward Kate Kiley and beat 'keeper Emma
Heppler for her fourth goal of the campaign. It marked
Kiley's first assist.
That's all the offense Alix Hoffman and the Wooster defense
needed, as the sophomore goalie notched her second complete-game
shutout, only needing two saves to preserve it. Heppler stopped
three shots for Alma (4-4).
The Scots continue non-league play next Saturday when they host
Washington & Jefferson College (5-2) at 2 p.m.
