TOWSON, Md. - Freshman goalkeeper Jenna Abaza (Doylestown, Pa./Central Bucks West) made 10 saves as the Goucher College women's soccer team fell 3-0 to visiting Elizabethtown at Beldon Field in the Landmark Conference opener for both teams Saturday afternoon.

- Abaza recorded back-to-back saves on shots by Whisten just over a minute and a half apart.
- Carsen Delmont (Hampstead, Md./Manchester Valley) got a head on a ball off a left-to-right corner kick with just over 15 minutes to play but Soto knocked down her shot attempt.
- In the 77th minute, Abaza stopped an initial shot by Bailey Groff but Groff collected the rebound and fired it home to give the guests a 3-0 advantage.
- With just under a minute left Claudia Roller (Tucson, Ariz./Sahuaro) got a shot past Etown reserve keeper Rena Rankin who was out of position but the Blue Jay defender knocked down the attempt.
