GAMBIER, Ohio – Host Kenyon College broke a string of four straight games against The College of Wooster where the margin of victory was a single goal, as the Ladies topped the Fighting Scots 3-0 in the programs' North Coast Athletic Conference finale on Saturday morning.

Kenyon (14-3, 7-1 NCAC), which secured a share of the NCAC title with the win, scored its first goal in the third minute when Hannah Sklar fired in a shot just inside the left post. The Ladies doubled the lead in the 23rd minute. On that goal, Lydia Turk passed the ball up the middle, and Bella Kern finished it off for her fifth goal of the season. Just before halftime, Olivia O'Connell passed the ball across the goal line from the right side, where Orcin Akman was waiting for the tip-in.

Wooster (5-11, 2-6 NCAC) junior Katie Shideler tallied 11 saves, with the final one coming on Carolyn Herbosa's penalty stroke in the 58th minute. Shideler's counterpart, Payton Doan, had one save.

Kenyon outshot Wooster 22-5, and the Ladies finished with a 7-2 edge on penalty corners.

Wooster wraps up its season with Sunday's noon home game against 19th-ranked University of Lynchburg (15-3).
