@OW_Panthers Women’s Soccer concludes 2018 season at Purchase

Old Westbury closed out the 2018 campaign on the road Wednesday (Oct. 24) versus Purchase College

PURCHASE, NY --- (www.OLDWESTBURYPANTHERS.com) SUNY Old Westbury women's soccer wrapped up the 2018 season with a 2-0 Skyline Conference road setback against the Purchase College Panthers (4-10-0, 3-6-0 Skyline) Wednesday evening from Purchase College Field.  Old Westbury misses out on postseason play for the third-straight year after posting a 4-13-1 overall record and finished 2-6-1 in the league standings. The loss makes Old Westbury 5-4-3 against Purchase dating back to 2008.

Old Westbury recorded its opening shot on goal as Mary Clark tested Purchase goalkeeper Amber Yarter (3-8-0) in the 27th minute of play.  After a scoreless first-half, Rebecca Colgan buried Brittany Esposito's feed in the 69th minute for the game-winning goal past Old Westbury goalie Alexa Higgins (4-13-1).  In the 81st minute, Brett Robison found Colgan to beat Higgins for her second score of the night to settle the 2-0 final.

Higgins finished the game with six saves for Old Westbury as Yarter swatted away a trio of shots to secure Purchase's shutout.

At the end of 90 minutes, Purchase controlled the shots (18-8) and shots on goal (8-3) columns while Old Westbury won the battle of corner kicks (3-2).  Normile's five attempts led Old Westbury's offensive attack with two landing on target.

Old Westbury graduates a five-member senior class consisting of Mary Clark (2015-18), Alexa Higgins (2017-18), Alicia Pirone (2015-18), Keleyna Romoleroux (2017-18) and Effie Shani (2016-18).
