Carrollton - The Wolves are a tempo setting team, and scoring early is always apart of setting that tempo. With the game winner coming in the first six minutes of play, Delta State eventually fell prey to a final score of 4-0.
The 2008 West Georgia Wolves are a senior laiden and a senior driven team, and against the Lady's Statesmen, senior's
Erika Harvey and
Samantha Jones connected at the 5:53 mark in the first half and again in the second half at the 64:36 mark,both off of corners from Jones and headed in by Harvey.
Wolves' fans should also be aware by now of the young talented freshmen that prowl along side their veteran counterparts. Angie Jolley and
Cydney Raymond each scored their fourth game of the season, and Raymond collected her second assist on Jolley's goal.
West Georgia has now put up back-to-back shutouts behind
Patricia Logsdon, who has filled in quite nicely for injured keeper
Jenny Ross, and when she only faces four shots a game thanks to the stellar play of defenders:
Chelsy Yarbrough,
Jamie Daley,
Brittany Harvey,
Meg Sytsma,
Brittany Dawkins, and
Miriam Perfecto, who missed todays game due to a death in her family, it can be hard to keep ones mind in a game.
UWG has picked up the tempo this season, as Harvey, Jones, and
Melanie Kilburn have all already surpassed last season's numbers, and the defense already has five shutouts through ten (10) games; one more than all of last season.
Delta State is now 7-3-2 overall and 1-1 in GSC play, while West Georgia improves to 6-3-1 overall and 1-0 in GSC play.
The Wolves will put this win behind them, as now UWG must focus on Alabama-Huntsville in Sunday's match-up. The Lady Chargers and the Wolves are set to play at 3:30pm.
