Women's Soccer Defeats Crosstown Rival WPI, 2-1
Posted: Sep 15, 2010

Worcester State 2, WPI 1

Worcester, MA --- Megan O'Leary (Whitman, MA) and Danielle Clifford (Attleboro, MA) scored goals less than five minutes apart midway through the second half to spark visiting Worcester State to a 2-1 victory over WPI in a non-conference women's soccer match-up on Wednesday evening. 

With the win, the Lancers improve to 2-2-1 while the Engineers fall to 1-5 on the season.

Both teams had great scoring opportunities in the scoreless first half. Worcester State freshman Carolyn Hassett (Charlton, MA) shot the ball from six yards out directly at WPI keeper Maddie Willer (Penfield, NY), who made the save at 20:05.  In the 39th minute Megan Forti (Lynn, MA) took a free kick from the top of the box that lifted just over the crossbar for WPI's best chance.
The Lancers lit up the scoreboard in the 61st minute when O'Leary scored on a nifty cross from Brianne Beckman (Lakeville, MA) to sneak the ball by Willer from six yards out.  Less than five minutes later WSU added another tally by Clifford, who placed the ball in the net from just outside the 18-yard box after a dish from Gaby Gonet (Agawam, MA).

WPI climbed back in the contest at 81:39 as Forti blasted the ball into the top right of the goal after receiving a pass from Tori Howland (Red Hook, NY). 

Rachael Armenti (West Boylston, MA) earned the win by stopping two shots, while Willer made three saves on the evening.  The Lancers outshot the Engineers 10-7 and held a 6-3 advantage in corner kicks.
 

WPI ventures to Wheaton on Saturday at noon to begin NEWMAC play. Worcester State heads to North Adams that same day to start MASCAC action with a 1pm showdown with MCLA.
