Wolverines finish 9-0

GREENVILLE, Pa. -- Stout defense and a balanced offensive attack lifted the Grove City College women's lacrosse team to a 13-2 Presidents' Athletic Conference road victory Saturday over Thiel in the regular season finale for both teams at Alumni Stadium.

Grove City (10-6, 9-0) blanked Thiel for 51 minutes and limited the Tomcats to 13 total shots. The Wolverines also pressured Thiel into 30 turnovers. 

Seven Grove City players scored in Saturday's win, including a four-goal outing from sophomore midfielder Jess Robinette (Mohnton, Pa./Twin Valley). Sophomore attack Gwen Shilling (Murrysville, Pa./Franklin Regional) fired in three goals and added three assists for a six-point afternoon. 

Sophomore midfielder Tori Stevenson (Butler, Pa./Butler) tossed in two goals and freshman attack Mia Mygatt (Silver Spring, Md./Brookewood) chalked up a goal and two assists. Senior midfielder Abby Roetering (Glenelg, Md./Glenelg) and sophomore attack Taylor Blythe (Mendon, N.Y./Honeoye Falls-Lima) each had a goal and an assist. Senior defender Amber Wartman (Ellicott City, Md./Mount Hebron) also scored while fellow senior defender Emily Arnold (Ijamsville, Md./Urbana) tallied an assist. 

Shilling scored off of assists from Mygatt and Arnold in the first eight minutes to give Grove City a 2-0 lead. Wartman and Stevenson both scored in a four-minute span later in the first quarter as the lead grew to 4-0. Robinette scored twice in the second period to give the Wolverines a 6-0 halftime lead. 

Shilling assisted goals by Blythe, Mygatt and Roetering in the third quarter as the lead swelled to 11-0 after 45 minutes. 

Roetering caused a team-high three turnovers while Arnold, Blythe and Wartman each had two caused turnovers. Arnold, Roetering and Wartman all had three ground balls. 

Senior goalie Elyse Kiggins (Zelienople, Pa./Seneca Valley) made five saves in 45 scoreless minutes of action. Junior Mia Gallagher (Mogadore, Ohio/Archbishop Hoban) played the fourth quarter and made one save. 

Grove City owned a 35-13 edge in total shots. The Wolverines also had a 21-5 margin in shots on goal. Grove City finished the game with 14 turnovers.
