Aguirre Breaks Shutouts Record in Women's Soccer's Victory Over Philadelphia U.



Senior Cindell Aguirre (El Paso, Texas) became Goldey-Beacom's career shutouts leader and junior Amy Runciman (Luton, England) converted a first-half penalty kick in their team's 1-0 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference victory over Philadelphia University at Nancy Churchman Sawin Field in Wilmington, DE.
 
Philadelphia U. had its best chance in the first half, when it owned an 8-3 shots advantage.  But Dena Noiseux had a great shot from just outside the box that ringed off the crossbar.
 
Goldey-Beacom's first best chance came later in the half when a foul in the box resulted in a penalty kick.  Runciman in the 31st minute booted it home for her sixth goal of the season and she is now 4-for-4 for her career from the spot.
 
It was Runciman's 18th career goal, putting her in a tie for fifth place in team history with Kristin Johnston (2004-04), and her 59 points keeps her fourth in team annals.
 
But the day belonged to Aguirre, whose 15th clean sheet breaks a tie she shared with Stephanie Steele (2003-06).  Aguirre, who made three saves, notched her seventh shutout this year that ties her with Steele (2003) and Alexis Bastien (2002) for the school's single-season mark.
 
Goldey-Beacom (9-3-1, 5-2-1 CACC), which is 4-1-1 in its last six matches and recorded its first win over Philadelphia U. in 13 tries, moves into a tie for third place with Holy Family in a hotly contested CACC race.  Only four points separates third place from ninth and the top eight teams make the league tournament.
 
Senior Jane Grimley (Franklinville, NJ) attempted three shots for the Lightning and Hanna Glass had three for the Rams (5-6-1, 4-3-1), who ended with a 12-7 shots edge.
 
Goldey-Beacom is home Saturday vs. Caldwell as part of a doubleheader with the men's team.  The women's game starts at 12:30 pm, followed by the men's contest at 2:45 pm.
