Box Score Worcester, Mass. – Brandeis junior Mimi
Theodore (Walpole, Mass.) assisted on both of the Judges'
goal including on freshman Mary Shimko's (Bay Village, Ohio)
game-winning header in the 87th minute to lift the 23 rd-ranked
Judges to a dramatic 2-1 win over host Clark in non-league
women's soccer action on Tuesday evening at Granger Soccer
Field.
The win improves Brandeis' record to 9-2-1 overall, while
the Cougars slip to 5-8 and have now dropped four of their last
five games.
Clark actually got off to a flying start when freshman
Lucia Pantuosco (Somers, Conn.) netted her first
career goal in the seventh minute to give the Cougars an early
lead.
That lead lasted for a little more than 20 minutes until
Theodore set up senior Sofia Vallone (Westport, Conn.) for the
equalizer at 26:58.
Shots were pretty even between the teams with Clark holding an
11-10 edge but the Cougars held a huge edge in corner kicks
(8-1).
Joanna Clark (Windham, Maine) turned back seven
shots in net for the Scarlet and White, while Francine Kofinas (Dix
Hills, N.Y.) made only one save in collecting the victory.
Clark will return to the field on Saturday when they host WPI
beginning at 11, while the Judges get back in action on Friday when
they play host to Carnegie-Mellon.
