Coming off a record-setting season with 14 wins, coach Teddy Meyer and the Lady Saints finally got the monkey off their back with their first win Sept. 24, against Webber International in a 3-0 win.
Sophomore forward Pam Quimby scored first for the Lady Saints in the 31st minute of the game on a loose ball in front of the goal. Freshman forward Tiffany Urquhart scored on a through ball in the 79th minute, passed by junior defender Jessica Echterling, and to cap off the game in the 86th minute, Quimby scored her second of the match off of a pass from Urquhart.
“It was a good win,” Meyer said. “It was very rewarding.”
