BOX SCORE BOX SCORE

Reading, Pa. (Sept. 13, 2011) - Senior Tonya Rutt (Ephrata, Pa./Ephrata) connected for her first goal of the season, the lone goal of the game, as Alvernia (3-0) defeated visiting Misericordia University (1-3) this evening in non-conference action at Schlager Memorial Field.

The Crusaders got down to business right away firing off two shots and earning a corner within the first five minutes of play.  It was on that very first corner that Erin Solley (Reading, Pa./Oley Valley) placed a corner pass in to Rutt, who rifled a shot straight on net that weaved it's way through the Cougar defense and past the goalkeeper. 

After taking the early 1-0 lead Alvernia went on to out shoot the Cougars 11-5 in the first half and 8-3 in the second half.

Alvernia freshman goalie Erin Wunsch (West Lawn, Pa./Wilson) was solid in net, tallying seven saves in the shutout effort.

The Crusaders return to action on Thurs. Sept. 15th as they host F&M in a make-up game at 4:30pm.

Alvernia 1, Misericordia 0
