The DePauw women's soccer team scored in the seventh minute of Saturday's game against Ohio Wesleyan University, and hung on for the 1-0 victory.
The Battling Bishops (3-8-1, 0-2 NCAC) outshot the Tigers (2-8-1, 2-1-1 NCAC) 20-10 and held the advantage 8-3 in shots-on-goal. Despite the advantage in attacking, senior goalkeeper Caroline Kerr tallied eight saves for the team's third shutout of the season.
Freshman Megann Lear's goal was the first of her collegiate career. She was assisted by senior Dana Sprague - her first of the season. Lear is the sixth different DePauw goal-scorer this season. Sprague leads the team with three goals.
