BRIDGEWATER, Va. - The Stevenson women's soccer team held a 17-9 edge in shots, but Bridgewater (Va.) used goals in the waning moments of each half and got six saves from Shauna Manovich her earned her fifth career shutout with a 2-0 victory Wednesday at Jopson Field in the season opener for both teams.

The Eagles (1-0) held the Mustangs scoreless for the second-straight year following last year's 0-0 tie at Stevenson in what was also the season opener for both teams.

After neither team was able to find the back of the net in the first 42 minutes, Bridgewater managed to crack a 153 minute scoreless streak in the series when Jacey Kelley scored unassisted after her first shot was stopped by sophomore Lauren Weitzman (Wetsminster/Winters Mill) and she punched in the rebound at 42:18.

The Eagles' 1-0 lead would hold until the final three minutes when Sara Taylor scored unassisted to seal the victory with her ninth career goal in the 88th minute.

Manovich totaled three saves in each half and had to withstand a second half effort from the Mustangs (0-1) in which they outshot Bridgewater, 9-4. Stevenson also held a 9-2 advantage in shots, including 5-1 in the second half.

Weitzman finished with three saves, but allowed a career-high two goals in her 13th career start. Meanwhile, junior Brittany Ross (Millersville/Severna Park), who boasts a 0.70 goals against average and 17-3-3 record in 31 career appearances, made her first career start in the field, totaling one shot on goal.
