W&L Women's Soccer Defeats R-MWC, 8-0

LEXINGTON, Va. -- Junior forward Anne Wiltshire (Richmond, Va./Collegiate) tied a school record with four goals in leading the Washington and Lee women's soccer team to an 8-0 win over Randolph-Macon Woman's College on Wednesday afternoon at Watt Field.

The Generals (1-1-1, 1-0) got on the board just 28 seconds into the contest as senior midfielder Gina Von Sternberg (Houston, Texas/Episcopal) scored off an assist from sophomore forward Shana Oltmans (Albuquerque, N.M./Valley). Von Sternberg then assisted on a goal by junior forward Cara Burton (Spring, Texas/Klein Oak) at the 5:17 mark for a 2-0 lead.

W&L pushed to a 3-0 lead just 2:42 later as Wiltshire scored the first of her career-high four goals off assists from Burton and sophomore defender Haley Bunting (Houston, Texas/St. John's). Another Wiltshire goal at the 14:12 mark gave the Generals a 4-0 lead and a goal by freshman forward Erica Giordano (Cranford, N.J./Mount Saint Mary) at the 31:17 mark gave W&L a 5-0 halftime edge.

Oltmans would then feed Wiltshire for two more second half goals and junior forward Sarah Helms (Charlotte, N.C./Myers Park) ended the scoring with a goal at the 64:26 mark.

Freshman Kiki Moreo (Westport, Conn./Staples) played the opening 45 minutes in goal, making one save, while junior Emily Binns (Midlothian, Va./Midlothian) played the final 45 minutes and did not face a shot.

Junior Emily Karnes (Richmond, Va.) stopped six shots in goal for the WildCats (1-5-0, 0-1).

Washington and Lee returns to action on Saturday as it travels to Randolph-Macon for a 1:00 pm contest.
