New London, CT --- Freshman Kristen Garza (Plymouth, MA) scored both WPI goals leading the Engineers to a 2-1 win over Coast Guard in a NEWMAC women's soccer match on Tuesday evening.

Garza tied the match, scoring on a scramble in front of the goal in the 36th minute and game remained tied going into halftime.

Garza scored the eventual game winner in the 70th minute with junior Jocelyn Moody (Bainbridge Island, WA) assisting for the Engineers (7-8, 3-4).  The rookie now has 15 goals and 33 points on the season, extending the WPI single-season records she established two weeks ago.
