LAKE FOREST, IL - The Lake Forest College women's soccer team
took care of business this weekend as they completed a sweep of Monmouth
College 5-0 on Saturday (October 14th) and Illinois College 4-0 on Sunday
(October 15th). The victories ensure the Foresters that they will be one
of the four teams in the Midwest Conference Tournament on October 27th
and 28th.
Strong defense was again an important part of the win over Illinois
College. The Lake Forest sophomore goalkeeping tandem of Rachael
LaFin (Glen Ellyn, IL/Glenbard West), who played the first half, and
Amanda
Potts (Verona, NJ/Verona), who played the second, turned away the only
three shots on goal they faced the entire game. It was the second straight
day the two combined to hold their opponents scoreless.
As for the Foresters goals, all four occurred in the first half of play.
