(box score)

Widener ran into a heavy dose of shooting by Elizabethtown, which scored twice in just over five minutes to hand the visitors a 3-0 Commonwealth Conference loss in Elizabethtown, PA.

 

The Blue Jays (8-8, 4-2 CC) opened the scoring in the 52nd minute as Laura Wingert picked up a loose ball and found the back of the net.  Wingert in the 57th minute made it 2-0 Elizabethtown by taking a pass from Erin Scott and tallying her fifth goal of the year.

 

Scott finished the scoring for Elizabethtown in the 84th minute.

 

Widener (12-4-2, 3-3) could not overcome a 21-6 shots discrepancy.  Senior Casey LeRoy (Washington Twp., NJ/Gloucester Catholic) finished with two shots.

 

Wingert and Scott closed with four shots apiece.  Jess Manchak did not have to make a save for the Blue Jays.

 

Widener on Saturday visits Albright in the regular-season finale with a conference tournament berth at stake for both teams, beginning at 6:00 pm.  The Pride need a win for the final spot and the Lady Lions need either a win or a tie.

Before that, Widener on Wednesday hosts Misericordia at 7:00 pm.
