MONTREAL WOMEN DEFEAT CARLETON
OTTAWA, Ont. - The University of Montreal Carabins (QSSF) withstood an early surge by Carleton University Ravens (OUA East) to defeat the home team, 4-1, in an exhibition preseason match. The Ravens came out strong with an all veteran team led by OUA All-Star Aisha Stinson, Ottawa, Ontario and fifth year veteran Captain Hiliary Peirce, Ottawa, Ontario. Carleton's early intensity paid off as they scored the match's first goal two minutes in as second year Striker Sam Sauve, Ottawa, Ontario finished an excellent corner kick by Peirce beating the Carabins first half goalkeeper, Catherine Cadieux.
Montreal would respond by scoring twice before half on the Ravens first year goaltender Erin Klimas, Rissell, Ontario. The goals by Catherine Delmas-Frenette, at the 12 minute mark and Veronique Laverdiere, at the 20 minute mark, gave the Carabin a one-goal lead at the intermission.
In the second half, both teams played all their recruits trying to see what all the potential new players have to offer at the university level. Carleton's Tanya Marshall, a second year goalkeeper from Ottawa, Ontario played in nets for the Ravens as Montreal out scored Carleton 2-0 in the second stanza to win 4-1. Emile Mercier and Laverdiere scored Montreal's second half goals.
No rest for Carleton as they host McGill University, on Wednesday Night and travel to Teaneck, New Jersey next weekend to face Fairleigh Dickinson University, in a pair of exhibition games before the OUA East regular season commences.
