Wilmington Takes Quaker Bowl with 3-1 Win Over Earlham

(WILMINGTON, Ohio) – The Wilmington College women's soccer team won the first game of the 2024-25 edition of the Quaker Bowl on Wednesday night in Williams Stadium over the visiting Earlham College Quakers, 3-1. Alex Wilson got the scoring started for Wilmington in the sixth minute before Jordan Snyder tallied a goal in the 11th minute and Jada Pohlen completed the scoring for Wilmington with a goal in the 74th minute.

After a few touch passes from the backfield, Wilson went to work on the Earlham defense. She controlled possession at the 45-yard line and never looked back. She maneuvered her way around two Earlham defenders and made a move to her left foot near the endzone and snuck a left footed shot past the diving keeper for a 1-0 lead.

It didn't take long for the Quakers to find their second goal of the contest. After an Earlham mishap on a throw in, Wilmington stole the ball away and Jordan Snyder received a pass at the 10-yard line and controlled the ball. She then sent a right-footed strike right past the Earlham goalkeeper for a 2-0 Wilmington lead. The Quakers went into the half up 2-0 after taking 12 shots in the first half.

Earlham cut the lead in half in the 66th minute with a goal to make it 2-1. The Quakers final goal was a beauty as freshman Gracie King sent a right footed cross into the box to the waiting head of Jada Pohlen, who did the rest and found the back of the net for the 3-1 lead.

Notables
  • Alex Wilson took three shots with all of them on goal in the game and found the back of the net for the third time this season.
  • Jada Pohlen led the team with eight shots and tied for the team lead with four shots on goal and scored her first goal this season.
  • Jordan Snyder scored her first goal of the season on her only shot of the game.
  • Gracie King picked up her second assist this season.
  • MJ Little took five shots and tied for the team lead with four shots on goal.
  • The Quakers took a season-high 22 shots and 15 shots on goal in the game.

What's Up Next
Wilmington improves their record to 2-1-1 overall this season. They will look to keep up their momentum on Saturday afternoon in Oberlin, Ohio, when they take on the Oberlin College Yeowomen at 4:00 P.M.

Oberlin has gotten the better of Wilmington in their last two games, including a 2-0 defeat in Oberlin last season.
