Bobcats Never Trail in 3-1 Victory Over Gophers

Goal by Cadwallender Creates 1-1 Deadlock in Second Half

September 19, 2009

FROSTBURG, Md. – Goucher overcame a 1-0 deficit against Frostburg St. by scoring a goal 10:24 into the second half. But less than two minutes later, the Bobcats had regained the lead and were on their way to a 3-1 triumph over the visiting Gophers.

The two teams combined to take only four shots in the first half, which ended with the Bobcats (5-2) ahead 1-0 thanks to an unassisted goal by Breanne Russell at 7:51.

The Gophers (4-3) pulled even when Mary Cadwallender (Fredericksburg, Va./The Madeira School) tallied her second goal of the season at 45:24, but the 1-1 tie lasted only until an unassisted goal by Chelsea Smith at 46:57 put the home team ahead to stay. A Rachel Merritt-to-Lindsey Frost goal at 54:35 provided the Bobcats with a 3-1 advantage.
