Women's Soccer Plays to 1-1 Draw with Stonehill

Hannah Weagle scores team-leading sixth goal of the season for the Ravens

RINDGE, N.H. (September 19, 2012) -- The Franklin Pierce University women's soccer team played to a 1-1 draw with Stonehill on Tuesday at Sodexo Field in Rindge. The Ravens moved to 3-2-1 overall and 2-2-1 in the Northeast-10, while the Skyhawks remained unbeaten at 3-0-2 and 2-0-2 in league play.

Freshman forward Hannah Weagle (Ipswich, Mass.) got Franklin Pierce on the board in the 37th minute with a sweet header off a corner kick attempt from junior Talita Pereira (Sao Paulo, Brazil). Pereira, who earned an assist on the play, dropped a ball in over the Stonehill defenders, which Weagle was able to put her head on and send a shot to the upper left corner of the goal. The tally was Weagle's team-leading sixth of the year.

That was the only mistake Stonehill goalkeeper Amy Wheaton would make on the evening as she was outstanding the rest of the way in making 10 saves to salvage a tie and push her record to 3-0-2 on the year.

The Skyhawks knotted the score five minutes later as Maddie Manning headed in her own goal, which came off a free kick attempt by Melissa Laubi. Just like Weagle, Manning was able to work her way behind several defenders to head in Laubi's kick, which was sent not far from the midfield stripe.

Franklin Pierce outshot Stonehill, 21-4, but could not pull off the winning tally in the second half. The Ravens, who produced 12 shots alone in the second 45 minutes, had several chances including back-to-back opportunities inside the box late in regulation, but Wheaton came up with a pair of huge saves to send the contest into overtime.

Neither side generated many top notch scoring chances in the two extra frames as the contest ended in the draw. Senior goalkeeper Casey Edward (Marshfield, Mass.) made one save for the Ravens as she moved her record to 2-2-1 on the year.

Franklin Pierce returns to action on Saturday when the Ravens play host to defending national champion Saint Rose at 7 p.m. in Sodexo Field.
