Women's Soccer Closes Out Home Slate With Win Over Illinois Wesleyan

St. Louis, Mo. – The Washington University in St. Louis women's soccer team closed out the home slate of the regular-season with a 3-2 win over Illinois Wesleyan on Tuesday evening. The Bears are now 7-4-5 on the year heading into the final three games of the regular-season.
 
Illinois Wesleyan got on the board first just 10:34 in when Lauren Shanks scored on a pass from Madison Fischer for her ninth goal of the year.
 
Less than one minute later, WashU evened the score, 1-1, when senior Leandre Pestcoe launched a shot from 25 yards out for her first career goal.
 
The Bears pulled ahead less than five minutes into the second half as first-year Marilee Karinshak scored her fourth goal of the season off a corner kick from junior Anna Viscovich, giving WashU a 2-1 edge.
 
The Titans tied things up in the 69th minute when Shanks netted her second goal of the game, taking a ball deflected off a Bears' defender and firing it in.
 
WashU grabbed the lead again in the 77th minute – for good – when senior Maggie Brett took a pass from first-year Ella Koleno and slipped it in past a diving IWU goalkeeper.

Statistically, WashU outshot IWU 16-5 and earned 11 corner kicks to the Titans' one. Junior Sidney Conner made two saves.
 
The Bears hit the road this weekend for a pair of UAA contests, starting with Brandeis on Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. ET followed by a Sunday match at NYU at 1:30 p.m. ET.
