PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Seniors
Emily DeRoehn and
Angelina Oliveira scored second-half goals for the JWU (Providence) women's soccer team in a 2-0 win over Regis (MA) College Saturday evening in Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) Quarterfinal action at the Scotts Miracle-Gro Athletic Complex.
The top-seeded Wildcats will now face No. 4 Lasell in a rematch of the 2022 GNAC Championship on Tuesday for a chance to play for the conference championship next weekend. JWU outshot the Pride 26-1 and avenged a scoreless tie with the Pride two weeks ago in Weston, Mass.
DeRoehn opened the scoring with a great individual effort less than 12 minutes into the second half, working her way around a defender before firing a low shot into the net for her sixth goal of the season. Oliveira added an insurance marker 20 minutes later with an upper 90 goal – her seventh of 2024.
