Wooster's Barrage of Shots in Second Half Comes to No Avail, as OWU Prevails 1-0

The College of Wooster fired off 13 shots in the second half, desperately trying to come up with a tying goal, but were unable to do so and Ohio Wesleyan University escaped Carl Dale Memorial Field with a key 1-0 victory in the women's soccer teams' North Coast Athletic Conference match-up.

Ohio Wesleyan's (9-4-2, 4-0-1 NCAC) lone goal came with 13:14 remaining in the first half, as Jenny Howe knocked in a pass from Makinzie Krebsbach. The Battling Bishops finished the half with a 7-1 shot advantage.

In the second, Wooster (9-5, 1-3 NCAC) was constantly on the attack, ending up with a plus 10 margin in shots (13-3) as well as a 7-2 advantage in corner kicks.

Defensively, the Scots' Alix Hoffman made four saves, while her counterpart, Laura VanHoey, was credited with six in the shutout.

Wooster, which is now facing a major uphill climb in its chase for a spot in the four-team NCAC tourney, will travel to Oberlin College (3-10-1, 0-5-0 NCAC) Wednesday at 4 p.m.
