YORK, Pa.- The Salisbury University women's soccer team received the quintessential win it had been looking for this season as the Sea Gulls claimed first place in the Capital Athletic Conference with a 2-1 victory Saturday against York (Pa.) College before 310 on the road. 

Salisbury (8-0-1, 4-0 CAC) and York (7-3-1, 3-1 CAC) went into intermission tied at 1-1 but junior Dana Passucci provided the game-winner at the 85 minute mark to lift SU to the win.

York's Kayla Denmyer opened the scoring as she netted the game's first goal at the 24 minute mark. SU answered 15 minutes later as sophomore Hillary Grove found the back of the net on an unassisted goal past Spartan goalie Desiree Halaka (two saves).

Salisbury finished the game with five shots, four on goal, while the Spartans got off 17 shots as they put eight on goal. York held the advantage in corner kicks for the game 6-2.

Sea Gull goalie Gena Goodson (4-0-1) made seven saves as the junior earned her fourth win of the year.

The Sea Gulls return to action on Saturday, October 6, as they host CAC rival University of Mary Washington at 1 p.m. at the SU Soccer Complex.
