In their first weekend at home on Alumni Field, the Lancers walked away with two points following a pair of ties against the Brock Badgers and McMaster Marauders. Windsor tied the Badgers 1-1 Friday night before walking away with a 2-2 deadlock against McMaster on Saturday.
 
Windsor is still searching for their first win of the year and are 0-2-2 on the season to sit in eighth place in the OUA west division.
 
FRIDAY vs BROCK
The Lancers got on the board early when Paiten Stephens came flying down the right side of the field and made a beautiful pass to Jade Samping who fired the ball past Brock goaltender Marilena Spagnolo.
 
The Badgers had a number of scoring opportunities in the first, but were unable to convert.
 
In the second, the Lancers continued to control the play for much of the half. However, a misstep early in second saw the Blue & Gold accidentally put the ball into their own net, tying it at 1-1. They were unable to break away for the remainder of the game and walked away with the tie.
 
SATURDAY vs McMASTER
Against the first place Marauders, the Lancers Abby Hunt, Keely Baggio & Stephens created many scoring chances for the Blue & Gold but were unable to find the back of the net.
 
Lea Pentney put Windsor up in just the fourth minute of the match with a header that flew into the back of the net. The Marauders would tie the game at one before Kaylea Cunliffe scored her first goal in a Lancer uniform to put the Blue & Gold up 2-1 heading into halftime.
 
McMaster applied continuous pressure on Lancer goaltender Kristina Brooks and with just minutes remaining in the game was able to breach the wall to tie the game at 2-2.
 
Brooks was very aggressive and solid in net, turning away seven shots on net.
 
UP NEXT
The Lancers will head to Sault Ste. Marie, ON next weekend for a double-header against the Algoma Thunderbirds. Both games are slated to start at 1:00pm on Saturday September 8th & Sunday September 9th.
