WASHINGTON, Pa. – Jordan Toohey recorded the game-winning goal and added an assist to lead Washington & Jefferson past Penn State Behrend 2-0 in non-conference women's soccer action on Saturday afternoon.
The Presidents (4-1-1) broke open a scoreless game with two second-half goals for their fourth win of the season. Taylor Troyan (Butler, PA/Butler) made five saves on nine shots for the Lions (3-4).
Behrend put on the pressure to start the second half with a shot by Laura Schaefer (Edinboro, PA/General McLane) going just wide of the goal. Eight minutes later, Washington & Jefferson struck on its first shot of the stanza. Toohey posted her seventh goal of the season with an unassisted tally for a 1-0 lead in the 55th minute.
The President's added an insurance goal at the 75:50 mark. Hayley Skovira netted her third goal of the season on a pass from Toohey for a final 2-0 margin.
The Lions had two corner kicks in the final 10 minutes, but were unable to generate any offense to get on the scoreboard.
