Freshman back Tori Woetzel (Wyckoff, N.J./Ramapo) got the scoring started at the 10:38 mark when she headed a corner taken by senior back Nicole Sullivan (Jackson, N.J./Jackson Memorial) into the middle of the net to give the Pioneers a 1-0 lead.

Less than two minutes later, sophomore midfielder Elena Grady (Washington Twp., N.J./Our Lady of Mercy Academy) sent a pass up the right side to senior forward Sheray Anthony (Cherry Hill, N.J./Cherry Hill West) who blasted a shot to the upper left corner to bring the score to 2-0.

In the 36th minute, Gina Cowdrick (Island Heights, N.J./Central Regional) gave the Pioneers a 3-0 lead when she found a throw-in from freshman Alexandra Hay (Whiting, N.J./Monsignor Donovan), dribbled around the defenders to the middle of the field and sent a shot to the left side of the net.

The Pioneers connected on a second Sullivan corner kick at the 67:02 mark when Sidney Gabrich (Washington, N.J./Warren Hills Regional) found the ball in the middle and tapped it into the net to give WP a 4-0 lead.


Seniors Mary Jane Seiler (Robbinsville, N.J./Robbinsville) and Alyssa Falduto (Nutley, N.J./Nutley) didn't need to make a save for WP in the victory. Diana Aviles made eight stops for the Scarlet Raiders.
