Two more wins

The women’s soccer team extended their undefeated season over the weekend, beating the Royal Military College Paladins 3-1 and the Trent Excalibur 6-0.

The Gaels trailed 1-0 at halftime against the Paladins on Friday at Richardson Stadium, but exploded for three straight goals in the second half.

The go-ahead goal came in the 85th minute when midfielder Chantel McFetridge scored on a penalty shot.

Though his team outshot the Paladins 27-2, head coach Dave McDowell said there’s still room for improvement.

“It’s frustrating,” he said. “The stuff we work on in training for hours doesn’t show in game situations.”

Midfielder Alexis McKinty posted a hat trick in the five-goal second half against the Excalibur on Saturday in Peterborough. Forward Jackie Tessier had two goals and goalkeeper Chantel Marson had her third shutout of the season.

“We looked a lot crisper,” McDowell said.

The 5-0 Gaels face the 1-3-1 Ryerson Rams on Saturday and the 4-1-0 Toronto Varsity Blues on Sunday at Richardson Stadium.
