Women's Soccer earns shutout win over Green Mountain College

(Nashua, N.H.) Junior Maggie Cohoon (Derry, N.H.) scored a goal and added two assists as the Rivier University Women's Soccer team coasted to a 3-0 win over visiting Green Mountain College this evening at Raider Field. The win propels the Raiders back to .500 with a 2-2-0 overall record while the Eagles continue to search for their first win, 0-3-0.

Junior Amanda Wickens (Tyngsboro, Mass.) broke the scoreless tie in the first half as she connected on a pass from Cohoon in the 22nd minute for her second goal of the season. Wickens would then put the game away in the second half. Within the first three minutes of the second half, Cohoon would earn another point by assisting on Wicken's second goal of the game at the 47:36 mark. Just before the final whistle sounded, Cohoon would net her own goal as junior Colby Createau (Nashua, N.H.) helped to set up the final tally of the game.

Sophomore goalkeeper Lauren Goodspeed (Merrimack, N.H.) stopped all three shot she saw on net for her first shutout of the season. Green Mountain goalkeeper Kim Simonetti made seven saves on the night.

Rivier will travel up to Standish, Maine for their next scheduled contest as they have a Great Northeast Athletic Conference tilt with Saint Joseph's College on Saturday afternoon. Green Mountain will host Bay Path College on Thursday afternoon when they return to action.
