Standish, ME - Neither the rainy weather nor the Albertus Magnus Falcons were enough to stop the Saint Joseph's College Women's Soccer team in GNAC Quarterfinal play on Saturday. The Monks rolled over the Falcons, 4-0, and were led offensively by SO Anna Willis (Gorham, ME) who scored two goals and added an assist. The St. Joe's defense played another outstanding game and SO GK Katye Mayo (Fairfield, ME) made 3 saves in the shutout victory.

Although St. Joe's was unable to convert on 3 prior corner kicks, the team found the right combination in the 12th minute when SR Jillian Leger (Westminster, MA) took a corner kick that SO Anna Willis headed into the back of the net. Willis made a great run to get into the play and score her first goal of the game to put the Monks ahead, 1-0.

Over the next 17 minutes Saint Joseph's College put 6 shots on net but was unable to convert. SO Anna Willis (Gorham, ME) had the best opportunity during this span when she drilled a kick off the right post and no one was able to take advantage of the rebound. One minute after this chance, in the 32nd minute, Willis hit paydirt and scored her second goal of the game off a perfect cross pass from teammate SO Brianna Jordan (Scarborough, ME) to put the Monks up by two.

Brianna Jordan added a goal of her own to go with her assist when she scored in the 81st minute off a cross pass from FY Whitney Linindoll (Paris, ME). FY Mikayla Call (Portland, ME) added a goal in the 89th minute, assisted by SO Anna Willis, to make the final score 4-0

Saint Joseph's College will host the Emerson College Lions in a GNAC Semi-Final game on Tuesday, 10/30. Time TBA.
