Tribe Ranked 12th in Soccer Buzz National Poll

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - After clinching the Colonial Athletic Association regular-season championship with a pair of victories during the weekend, the William and Mary women’s soccer team moved up to 12th in the latest Soccer Buzz national poll, which was released Monday. Additionally, the Tribe (15-1-2, 9-0-1) earned a ranking of 17th in the latest Soccer America national poll. The National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA)/adidas poll, which listed the College 16th last week, is scheduled to be released on Tuesday afternoon.

During the weekend, the Green and Gold posted a pair of shutouts, blanking Georgia State, 3-0, on the road and UNC Wilmington, 2-0, in Williamsburg. With the triumphs, the Tribe extended its unbeaten streak to 14 matches, establishing a program record.

In Friday’s win against the Panthers, all three of W&M’s scores came in the opening half, as sophomore Abby Lauer, sophomore Claire Zimmeck and junior Mary MacKenzie Grier found the back of the net. Zimmeck’s tally was her eighth in the past four matches, as she recorded seven last week en route to earning numerous national player of the week accolades. Defensively, sophomore goalkeeper Meghan Walker recorded her eighth shutout of the season.

On Sunday, freshman Krissy Vornadore and sophomore Danielle Collins notched goals for the Tribe as the squad secured the CAA regular-season crown. Walker earned her second consecutive shutout and her ninth of the season, as she moved into a tie for second place on the Tribe’s single-season list. Additionally, she lowered her goals against average to 0.65, which leads the conference.

W&M will close out the regular season with a home match against Old Dominion on Friday at 7 p.m.
