LEXINGTON, Va. – Senior forward Anne Van Devender (Jackson, Miss./Choate Rosemary Hall) notched a hat trick to lead the third-seeded Washington and Lee women's soccer team to a 6-0 victory over sixth-seeded Guilford in the quarterfinals of the ODAC Tournament on Saturday afternoon at Watt Field.
Van Devender got the Generals on board when she found the back of the net unassisted in the 26th minute. Senior defender Marisa Van Brunt (Sayville, N.Y./Sayville) then connected with Van Devender, who scored again at 41:32 to give W&L a 2-0 lead going into halftime. The Blue and White continued to extend its lead with four second-half goals, including another tally by Van Devender at 49:27 en route to the six-goal triumph.
Van Devender was joined in the scoring column by sophomore midfielder Caroline Lamberti (Oakton, Va./Paul VI) and sophomore forward Laura Yungmeyer (Kingsport, Tenn./Dobyns Bennett), who each added a marker, while first-year Hannah Deming (Princeton, N.J./Princeton) dished out one assist.
Senior netminder Kiki Moreo (Westport, Conn./Staples) played 90 minutes for the Generals and registered three saves, while senior Amber Stapler (Glen Burnie, Md./Glen Burnie) and first-year Kat Adams (Oak Island, N.C./South Brunswick) split time between the pipes and combined to stop 15 shots.
W&L out-shot GC, 32-5, and held a 7-1 advantage in corner kicks.
The Generals will face the winner of the Lynchburg/Randolph-Macon quarterfinal game in the semifinals on Wednesday. The game time has yet to be determined.
