At 6-3-0 overall and 3-1 in the conference as of Wednesday night, the women's varsity soccer team has had a challenging season thus far.
"I'm not very pleased with the season, we've had bad luck with injuries," Head Coach John Leaney said.
He is largely referring to the loss of forward Grace King '09, one of the team's main goal scorers over the past two seasons.

We can all forgive the women's volleyball team for being a little tired. In addition to their regular two competition per week schedule, the Scots have travelled to two large invitational tournaments this season.
While one of them, the Augsburg Invitational, was right here in our backyard, the other was a four-game swing down to Georgia to take on the competition at the Emory Invitational in Atlanta.

Phillies v. Brewers
PICK: PHILLIES IN 4
The Brewers win game two behind ace Sabathia, but they have no one else in terms of pitching and will consequently lose games one, three and four. They had a great run the last week of the regular season, but in reality, they're only a playoff team because they play in the NL.
