Scots Pick Up 10th Victory, Cruise Past Oberlin 2-0

The College of Wooster women's soccer team scored two goals 11 minutes apart near the conclusion of the first half, spurring the Fighting Scots on to a 2-0 triumph at Oberlin College Wednesday afternoon in North Coast Athletic Conference action.

Wooster (10-5-1, 2-3-0 NCAC), which has now won 10 games in a season 10 of the last 11 years, tallied goals from two different players. Kate Kiley and freshman Nicole Himebaugh provided the only offense would need, finding the back of the net in the 34th and 45th minutes, respectively. For Kiley, a senior, it marked her team-best seventh goal of the season, while it was Himebaugh's second of her young career.

Defensively, the Scots posted their third shutout of 2008, with help from sophomore Alix Hoffman in 74:58 of playing time along with senior Sara Flannelly in 15:02, as neither one had to record a save. The Scots managed 27 shots, while the Yeowomen fired just five would-be scoring attempts.

Wooster is next at Kenyon College (5-8-1, 2-2-1 NCAC) Saturday afternoon for a match scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. in Gambier.
