NEW LONDON, CT - First-year Allie Weiller (Katonah, NY) scored in the opening minute of overtime to lift the Tufts University women's soccer team to a 1-0 victory against Connecticut College Saturday in a NESCAC match.
The Jumbos improve their record to 3-5-2 overall and are 1-5-1 in conference play after scoring their first NESCAC victory of 2012. The Camels are 2-6-1 overall with a 0-6 record in league action.
Junior Kristin Wright (Austin, TX) stopped six shots en route to the shutout for the Jumbos. Sophomore Natalie Signor (Glastonbury, CT) made two saves for the Camels.
