W&L Defeats Sweet Briar By A Count Of 8-1

LEXINGTON, VA -- Junior midfielder Liz Olson (Brookfield, Conn./Loomis-Chaffee) tallied two goals and assisted on another to help lead Washington and Lee to an 8-1 victory over Sweet Briar on Thursday afternoon at the Liberty Hall Fields.

Sophomore midfielder Drew Powers (Atlanta, Ga./Lovett School) began the scoring with 4:20 gone-by as she found the back of the net off an assist from Olson. Olson then scored her first goal of the match at the 38:30 mark to give the Generals a 2-0 advantage that they would take into halftime.

Olson and Powers would add another goal each at the 46:41 and 53:20 marks, respectively, before freshman forward Ingrid Zenzen (Portland, Ore./Jesuit) scored the lone goal of the game (54:08) for the Vixens (2-9. 0-7).

W&L (6-3, 5-0) outshot Sweet Briar 42-7 and took eight corner kicks as opposed to none for the Vixens. Freshman Margaret Van Hook (Lexington, Ky./Tates Creek) registered 17 saves in goal for SBC.

W&L will be in action again on Saturday afternoon as it travels to Greensboro, N.C., to take on Guilford at 2:00 pm.
