WORCESTER – Leah Beauton (Colchester, CT) bookended a trio of goals in a span of 4:13 as the WPI women's soccer team earned its first win over Trinity in the four-year history of the series with a 3-2 triumph Sunday afternoon at Alumni Stadium. In addition to reaching 80 career points, Kristen McCrea (Weymouth, MA) moved into a tie for third all-time with 22 assists and fourth all-time with 29 goals.

Aspen Hawkins (Banks, OR) later cut the deficit to one at 75:47.

Mandy St. Germain (Worcester, MA) amassed five saves before exiting in the 79th minute while Kelsey Leach (Tolland, CT) made a heart-stopping save in relief. Taylor O'Connor (Danvers, MA) and Jennifer Stuart (Newburyport, MA) each made four stops for Trinity.

WPI outshot Trinity 20-14 for the game and 11-8 on-goal. Corner kicks were at a premium with the Engineers taking three of the four awarded in the contest.
