CAMDEN, N.J. – The William Paterson women's soccer team (6-7, 2-4 NJAC) dropped a 3-0 decision at Rutgers-Camden (7-6-4, 1-4-2 NJAC) Oct. 13.

The Pioneers were nearly even to the Scarlet Raptors in shots (11-12), and owned a 4-2 advantage in corner kicks, but could not find the back of the net against Rutgers-Camden. William Paterson goalie Meaghan Baker (Rockaway, N.J./Morris Knolls) made six saves in the match.

Jessica Leoni increased her team-leading totals to nine goals and four game-winning goals when she scored at 13:24, after being sprung down the left touchline on a long pass from junior back Jayme Gatti. Leoni carried the ball down the line, cut inside and launched a shot into the far upper right corner.

The Lady Raptors padded their lead at 54:04 when freshman forward Jessica Ramirez scored her third goal of the season from a scramble in front of the net, following a corner kick by Vanessa Maia and a feed from freshman back Christina Vitagliano.

The final goal came off the foot of captain Brittney Mancine, who along with goalie Kristen Cargen, was honored on Senior Night. Mancine collected her fourth tally of the season at 59:10 on a high shot under the crossbar from the top of the box, following a pair of quick passes from Maia and Leoni.
