Ohio Wesleyan 4, DePauw 0

Sophomore forward Olivia Danley (Del Rio, Texas/Independence (Va.)) scored the game-winning goal and set up 2 other scores to lead Ohio Wesleyan past DePauw in a North Coast Athletic Conference matchup on Saturday in Greencastle, Ind.

The win was Ohio Wesleyan's 14th in a row, equaling the mark set by the 1989 squad.  It also was the Bishops' 11th consecutive shutout, tying the school standard set last season.

Danley gave the Bishops the lead with an unassisted goal late in the first quarter.

Ohio Wesleyan made it 2-0 on a goal by junior forward Colleen McMenamin (Chester, N.J./West Morris Regional) late in the third quarter.

Danley set up freshman midfielder Brogan Hellig (Monroeville, N.J./Saint Joseph Academy) on a goal with exactly 6 minutes remaining in regulation time, and after the Bishops earned a penalty corner in the 56th minute, Danley inserted the ball to freshman midfielder Grace Ammon (Southborough, Mass./Algonquin Regional), whose shot found the back of the cage with 4:13 to play.

Ohio Wesleyan outshot DePauw, 17-8.  Junior Meg McCarthy (Trumbull, Conn.) was credited with 5 saves in the Bishop cage.
