(BEREA, Ohio) – Baldwin Wallace pulled away late in the first half and went on to defeat Walsh by a count of 11-5 at George Finnie Field on Tuesday evening. The Cavaliers are now 2-4 after the non-conference loss while the Bees improved to 3-2.

BW opened up the game with a pair of goals in 44 seconds just a few minutes after the start. The two teams exchanged goals before the Cavs came back and tied the game at 3-3 after Lane Brunkala (Fr., Mentor, OH/HS) scored on a free position shot and Maria Nobile (So., Westerville, OH/Olentangy Orange) scored thanks to an assist from Aly Jajack (So., North Canton, OH/Hoover).

The Cavs' offense stalled out there as the Bees scored five consecutive goals to close out the half. Overall, it was a part of a 7-0 run that Walsh finally ended on an unassisted score from Steffi Zepp (So., Dublin, OH/Coffman) that made the score 10-4 with 23:52 left in the game. Unfortunately for the Cavs, that was their final goal until the last minute when Zepp scored again on a free position shot.

Tia Tyler (Jr., Columbus, OH/St. Francis DeSales) reached double digits in saves with 13. She faced 39 shots on the night.

Zepp led the team offensively with a pair of goals. Nobile tallied three ground balls and five draw controls to help Walsh on possession.
