Box Score WELLESLEY, Mass.--This time, the Smith College soccer team was on the right end of a one goal game, as Ellie Theurer (Gainesville, Fla./Oak Hall) came off the bench to net the only goal in a 1-0 win over Wellelsey College on Saturday afternoon.  Smith improves to 2-9, with a 1-5 record in the NEWMAC, while Wellesley drops to 3-9-3, and 2-4 in NEWMAC play.

Lane (Atherton, Calif./Sacred Heart Prep)'s through ball, and hammered a shot to the left side that beat Wellesley starter Clair Cerda for her fifth goal of the season.

With the Pioneers clinging to a 1-0 lead in the second half, Lindsey Gregor (Bradenton, Fla./Southeast) withstood a barrage of Wellesley shots, as the Blue fired off 11 attempts in a 13-minute span. The senior made four of her six total saves during that stretch, to earn her second shutout of the season.
