WILLIAMSBURG, Virginia – Freshman defender
Sophie Trepohl scored the game-winning goal with just under three minutes remaining in the first overtime period as UNCW edged William & Mary, 1-0, in Colonial Athletic Association women's soccer action at Martin Family Stadium at Albert-Daly Field on Thursday evening.

Carey Allard with her back to the goal into the right side.
Freshman goalkeeper
