Lucky Number 13 In A Row For UB Women's Soccer As Purple Knights Top Roberts Wesleyan, 2-0

Rochester, N.Y.-The University of Bridgeport women's soccer team, ranked number 16 in the nation in this week's NSCAA/Continental Tire NCAA Division II Women's Soccer National Poll, picked up its thirteenth consecutive win on Friday evening, as the Purple Knights got a first goal from sophomore Flo Gamby (Goffs Oak, England) and a second half tally from junior Danielle Puddefoot (Slough, England) to notch a 2-0 East Coast Conference road win over the host Roberts Wesleyan College Redhawks.  With the victory, UB is now 13-1-0 overall and remain unbeaten in ECC play at 6-0-0.  RWC is now 7-4-1 overall and 4-2-0 in conference action.

Gamby scored the game-winning goal, her fifth of the 2013 season, just over 15 minutes after kickoff when she headed home a beautiful cross from freshman season just over 15 minutes into the second half when she knocked home a pass from freshman Lauren Mengel (Gilbertsville, Pa.).

Puddefoot hit the back of the net for a team-leading ninth time this season just over 15 minutes into the second half when she knocked home a pass from freshman Lauren Mengel (Gilbertsville, Pa.) following a scramble in front of the Redhawks' goal.

Bridgeport senior goalkeeper Julia Hansson (Tockfors, Sweden) made four saves to record her eighth shutout of the 2013 campaign and school-record clean sheet number 33 of her career.

The Purple Knights will remain in Upstate New York for a Sunday matinee against East Coast Conference newcomer, the Daemen College Wildcats.  Action gets underway in Amherst, New York at 11:00 a.m. on Sunday.
