POST GAME AUDIO: Head Coach Steve Jones     

     FORT WORTH, Texas - Texas Wesleyan scored five second-half goals en route to a 7-0victory over Oklahoma Christian, Saturday afternoon at a soggy Martin Field.

     Texas Wesleyan (1-1) opened the scoring in the 21st minute, when freshman Loren Clark put one past the goalkeeper on a great pass from junior Jessica Carrion to put the Lady Rams ahead, 1-0.
Clark added another goal in the 36th minute on a breakaway to make the score 2-0 at halftime.

     Texas Wesleyan put the game away in the second half, pouring in five goals. Carrion tallied two goals, while sophomore Rose Fernandez posted two of her own. Junior Jessica Killen capped off the scoring with a goal in the 86th minute.

     "The girls played well," head coach Steve Jones said. "They came out with a lot of intensity and finished well. Once we started getting a lot of chances on goal, the other team gave in."

     The Lady Rams outshot the Lady Eagles, 16-2, and controlled the pace of play for the entire game. Sophomore Nicole Richardson was also a bright spot for Texas Wesleyan, assisting on three goals.

     "This was a good confidence builder for the girls and they really worked hard," Jones said.

    Texas Wesleyan will be back in action Friday when they play host to UT-Tyler at Martin Field. Game time is set for 3 p.m.
