PHILADELPHIA-- For the second straight year, the University of Delaware
women’s soccer team opened the season with a 1-0 non-conference win over
Saint Joseph’s University.
The lone goal of the game came 26:21 into the contest when the ball deflected
off the foot of Saint Joseph’s defender Jeanne Neal and inadvertantly into her
own net past goalie Nicole DiEnna.
Senior goalkeeper Lindsay Shover (Lancaster, PA/Penn Manor) made three saves
in recording her second consecutive opening game shutout. Shover, who lead
the Colonial Athletic Association in shutouts last year with five, now has 15
shutouts for her career at Delaware. She currently sits five shutouts behind
Sheena Hunter (1990-93) for second place in school history.
The Blue Hens outshot Saint Joseph’s 17-9, but were unable to slip anything
past DiEnna. Leading the charge for the Delaware offense was freshman Caitlyn
Germain, who posted five shots in her collegiate debut.
The win was the sixth consecutive for the Hens over the Hawks, and the third
consecutive by way of shutout.
The Blue Hens, picked sixth in the CAA in preseason poll, return to action
Sunday at 1 pm with a non-conference game at Seton Hall.
