WOOSTER, Ohio — The Marietta College women's soccer team ran into trouble just as it got on the road to Wooster Wednesday (Sept. 13), and its woes continued once the game actually started, as it suffered a 3-0 loss to the Fighting Scots.

The Pioneers (2-2-2) had their trip delayed when something on their bus malfunctioned, causing a small fire to ignite just north of Marietta on Interstate 77. No one was hurt, and the squad continued its trip once a replacement bus arrived.

Marietta managed just four shots in the loss, while Wooster (4-1) totaled 30 in the match, which was hampered by rain for most of the first half and wet, sloppy field conditions throughout the evening..

Winnie Adrien got the Fighting Scots on the board with a goal in the seventh minute, her sixth of the year.

Wooster made it 2-0 in the 23rd minute, when Chelsea Happ scored on a header.

The Fighting Scots completed the scoring in the 58th minute, when Kerry Melenovsky found the back of the net.

Marietta freshman goalkeeper Jenna Freeman (Bay Village) finished with 12 saves in the loss.

The Pioneers will look to bounce back when they return to action Saturday (Sept. 16). Marietta will host Rio Grande, led by former standout Amber Oliver '02. Kickoff is slated for 4 p.m. on Marietta Field.
