Beavers Earn First Conference Win Behind Duo of Roy and Gleason

FARMINGTON, Maine – The dynamic duo of Lydia Roy (Waterville, Maine/Waterville) and Ashley Gleason (Scarborough, Maine/Scarborough) tallied two goals and three assists in the University of Maine at Farmington (4-8-1, 1-4-1) women's soccer team's, 3-0, North Atlantic Conference shutout over Green Mountain College (0-10-0, 0-5-0) on Sunday afternoon.

In the seventh minute, the duo switched roles and Roy set up Gleason to double the Beavers' lead. From inside the box, Roy sent a cross to the right side and Gleason booted home her seventh goal of the season.

Bridget Humphrey (Jefferson, Maine/Erskine Academy) notched her sixth goal of the season in the 15^th minute on a free kick. Gleason started the attack by tapping the ball to start the free kick and Humphrey nailed her shot into the top left corner of the goal.
