ST. LAWRENCE (K) 6, DURHAM 0

OSHAWA, Ont. - The Durham College women's soccer team opened their season at Vaso's Field with a tough 6-0 loss to St. Lawrence College on Friday.

The Lords entered the game with a shortened bench as several veteran players continue to work towards returning from preseason injuries including 2012 OCAA all-stars Chelsey Rogatinsky and Megan Arsenault who were scratched from the line-up just prior to kick-off.

This led to opportunity for many first year players to make their debut with the Lords including Riley Graham and Vanessa Gudgin who showed outstanding play throughout the game.

The Lords had opportunities to score but never seemed to catch the critical break including a golden chance in the 62nd minute when a free kick from Charmaine Bosse caught the crossbar.

Brittany Sero also showed outstanding play for the Lords as she worked hard to lead the young team from her midfield position.

Goal scorers for St. Lawrence College included Sydney Midwood (2), Megan Hutcheson, Caitlyn Dunseasth, Megan Simpson and Hailey Perrault.

The Lords will look to rebound on Tuesday night when they head to Belleville to take on the Loyalist Lancers. Game time is 6 p.m.
