Freshman forward Caroline Thomas (Perrysburg) scored the game-winning goal and Ohio Wesleyan went on to a win over Oberlin in the North Coast Athletic Conference opener for both teams on Saturday at the Jay Martin Soccer Complex.

The Bishops took the lead in the 14th minute when sophomore forward Ava Bruns (Delaware/Hayes) won the ball just inside the midfield line, made a run up the left side, and centered to Thomas, who finished the chance in front.

Ohio Wesleyan added to its lead in the 68th minute as sophomore midfielder Tiffany Trinh (Dublin/Scioto) slotted a through ball to freshman midfielder Alex Foster (Tipp City/Tippecanoe), who centered it to sophomore midfielder Athena Kolettis (Northfield/Nordonia), who knocked the ball home for a 2-0 lead.

In the 81st minute, Trinh lined up for a free kick about 35 yards away from the Yeowomen goal, and sent a rocket that skimmed off the hands of leaping Oberlin keeper Ali Grant and into the net.

Each team recorded 11 shots.  Sophomore Natalie Ryan (Beavercreek/Dayton Carroll) finished with 5 saves in posting the shutout.
