WSOC: GEORGE FOX 1, LEWIS & CLARK 0 - McKinsey's Goal Leads Bruins Past Pioneers

PORTLAND, Ore. - Jenny McKinsey moved into second place on the George Fox University all-time points list and third on the career goals list with the only score of the game, lifting the Bruins to a 1-0 win over the Lewis & Clark College Pioneers in a Northwest Conference women's soccer match Sunday here at Griswold Stadium.

The struggling Bruins had not scored a goal or notched a victory since defeating Linfield College 3-0 at home on, a string of five straight games.  McKinsey snapped the first of those strings with an unassisted goal at the 31:12 mark, scoring after a deflection in the penalty box.  It was her seventh of the season, tying her with Kirsten Cardwell for the team lead, and the 30th of her career, breaking a tie for third on the Bruin career list with Brooke (Pitner) Erickson.  Coupled with a Bruin-record 20 career assists, she now has 80 total points after passing Gegi Bonera's 79 and is second only to Karli Holub' 102 points.

From there, it was up to the Bruin defense to hold the lone, and that they did, limiting the Pioneers to 10 shots in all and none on goal, despite a 6-3 advantage for the Pios in corner kicks.  The closest the home team came to tying the score was a breakaway by Katrina Weisbecker in the 76th minute, but the Bruins were able to punch the ball out of bounds before she could finish the run with a shot. 

Bruin keeper Becka Doyle was credited with her third shutout of the season, although she had to make no saves to get it.  The Bruins took 11 total shots in the game, five on goal, with Pioneer keeper Elise Delgado making four saves.

George Fox (7-11, NWC 4-10) visits Linfield College Friday at 11:00 a.m. to begin the final weekend of the season.  Lewis & Clark (3-10-2, NWC 2-10-2) goes to Whitman College Friday, also at 11:00 a.m.
