Game Recap: Women's Soccer |

No. 17 Women’s Soccer Handles ECSU, 3-0

Cardinals secure a 10-win season, already the second-highest single-season win total in program history

MANSFIELD, Conn. – The No. 17 ranked Wesleyan women's soccer team earned their fourth straight win to set up a Senior Day matchup with No. 11 ranked Hamilton Saturday morning. Wesleyan defeated the Warriors of Eastern Connecticut State, 3-0, to improve to 10-1 on the year while ECSU drops to 5-7-2.

HIGHLIGHTS:
  • The Cardinals got on the board early, as in the 2nd minute Grace Devanny '23 followed up on a Julia Meehan '22 shot that was initially blocked by the Warriors defense to give them the lead
  • Ally Stanton '24 entered the game in the 26th minute and instantly made an impact, beating the ECSU goalie and quickly putting Wesleyan up 2-0. She was assisted on the play by Meehan and Kate Hausladen '23
  • In the later parts of the first half Wesleyan made a handful of substitutions which proved to be worthwhile. One of those subs was Katie O'Connell '25 who produced another scoring chance in the 37th minute as her shot ricocheted off the post, however, the Warrior defense was able to recover
  • To begin the second half ECSU put out a new goalkeeper in Emily Wallace, and she was immediately tested. Thirty seconds in she saw her first shot, which was only the start of a 16-shot second half for the Cardinals
  • Wallace hung in there, saving nine of the 10 second half shots on-goal that the Cardinals were able to manufacture. The one that was able to sneak by was off the foot of Andrea Chiappetti '24, who was set up by O'Connell and Devanny
INSIDE THE NUMBERS:
  • Sarah Hammond '22 and Courtney Litts '22 combined for Wesleyan's seventh clean sheet of the year
    • The Cardinals are now the NESCAC leader in fewest goals allowed with only five through 11 games
  • Wesleyan outshot ECSU 24-2 (13-1 shots on-target), along with having the advantage in corner kicks 8-0
  • Stanton now has eight points in her last three games, which includes three goals in her last two matches
  • Devanny moves up to 3rd in the conference in total points, while playing in less games than everyone else in the in the top five of that list
WHATS NEXT:
Next is Senior Day for the Cardinals, as the seniors will play their final regular season game on Jackson Field Saturday at 11 AM. They will compete against No. 11 ranked Hamilton (10-0-2, 7-0-2 NESCAC), in a battle to decide who takes first place in the NESCAC.
