RICHMOND, Ind. — An early goal was the difference on Wednesday as the Earlham College women’s soccer team fell 1-0 to nationally ranked Denison University on Matlack Field.

Denison scored at the 1:58 mark of the first half on a corner kick for the lone tally of the North Coast Athletic Conference contest.

The Big Red had a 16-5 edge in shots with Earlham first-year goalkeeper JoBeth Buckley (Berkley, MI/Berkley) recording seven saves for the Quakers.
