Annapolis, Md. (September 26, 2006)--The Mount St. Mary's women's soccer team fell at No. 25 Navy, 5-0, on Tuesday night in a non-conference matchup. It is the third time in Mount history that the women's soccer team has faced a ranked opponent. The Mount falls to 2-6 on the season.

Navy (11-0), one of only two unbeaten and untied teams in the nation, wasted little time taking control of the game, scoring twice in the opening 7:15 of play. Brittany White, who finished with two goals and an assist, scored 3:33 into the game on an assist from Meggie Curran. Shelly Moeller converted a corner kick just 3:48 later for a 2-0 Navy lead 7:15 into the contest. Karie Weniger added Navy's third goal 3:01 before the half to give the Mids a commanding 3-0 lead at the break. Weniger took Cassie Barbaresi's long ball to the middle and beat Mount goalkeeper Anna Lebo.

The Mids added a pair of goals in the second half to seal the win. White scored her second goal of the game on a Barbaresi assist at the 66:09 mark while Carrie Myers rounded out the scoring with White assisting on the goal.

Navy held a 25-7 advantage in shots and a 9-0 edge in corner kicks. Jenn Baker led the Mount attack with three shots in the contest. Lebo made a season-high 11 saves in the loss while Beth Reed had two saves in 80 minutes for Navy.

The Mount opens Northeast Conference play on Friday at 3:30 p.m. when Sacred Heart visits the MSM Soccer Field.
