Hartford, Conn. – Sophomore
Lily Pepper (Princeton Junction, N.J.) and senior
goalkeeper Emily Weedon (Wellesley, Mass.)
combined for an 11-save shutout as the Trinity College Bantams tied
the visiting Colby College Mules 0-0 in the New England Small
College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) women's soccer season
opener for both teams this afternoon. It was the Bantams
fourth shutout in their last five games, dating back to last
season.
Colby goalkeeper Jayde Bennett (Lynn,
Mass.) racked up 18 saves for a shutout of her own,
as the Bantams were unable to capitalize on the offensive end,
despite rifling off 24 shots. Trinity maintained possession
on the offensive end for the majority of regulation, and in
overtime. The Trinity defense has been a strong point for the
Bantams, recording eight shutouts last year, three of which
resulted in scoreless ties.
