After a hard loss against Bates College last week the Blue bounced back just in time for Mt. Holyoke. The Blue dominated the game scoring three goals and earning a second shut out for the season. Although Wellesley has an unbeaten streak against Mt. Holyoke for several years now, the win was an impressive overall team effort.
Goals were scored by Chelsea Patry, Jen Marble, and Ariel Chao (goal #7 for the season). Chelsea also earned her second assist for the season.
Overall, the team looked more organized and it was clear they wanted to fix the mistakes from previous matches. Defensively we played as a unit which contributed to things coming together on the offensive side of things.
The win places the Blue at second place in the conference with 1 win and 1 tie for a total of 4 points and 4-3-1 for the season. Check out the NEWMAC website for scores/updates on our competitors: http://www.newmacsports.com/sports/wsoc/index

Wellesley's "quote of the season"...
"There are plenty of teams in every sport that have great players and never win titles. Most of the time, those players aren't willing to sacrifice for the greater good of the team. The funny thing is, in the end, their unwillingness to sacrifice only makes individual goals more difficult to achieve. One thing I believe to the fullest is that if you think and achieve as a team, the individual accolades will take care of themselves. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.”
