The Tiger women's soccer team also got on the winning side of the ledger over the weekend in Indiana, falling on a penalty kick against perennial powerhouse DePauw on Saturday before finally breaking out with a 4-0 win over Rose-Hulman on Sunday.

Prior to the win over Rose-Hulman, the Tigers had lost to 2001 NCAA Division III tournament participants Mount St. Joseph and DePauw, and perennial Ohio Athletic Conference contender Wilmington. The losses to MSJ and DePauw were both by 1-0 scores, while the Quakers broke out for three second-half goals in a 4-1 victory.

Against Rose-Hulman, the Tigers may have finally found the offensive combination as junior Geri Woessner (Dayton, Ohio/Oakwood) had two goals and an assist, freshman Lindsay Zigler (Columbus, Ohio/Upper Arlington) had a goal and an assist, juniors Cristin Gill (Loveland, Ohio/Loveland) and Kaitlin Hiscar (Pataskala, Ohio/Watkins Memorial) had goals and freshman Emily Hiscar (Pataskala, Ohio/Watkins Memorial) chipped in with an assist. Getting her first start in goal, sophomore Eileen Quinn (Glenview, Ill/Glenbrook) recorded a shutout, making three saves along the way.

The Tigers continue with non-conference action this week with road games at Ohio Dominican and Transylvania, and a home game next Wednesday opposite Muskingum, giving Wittenberg time to straighten things out before the always grueling NCAC conference race.
