Stellar soccer squad scoreless in Sherbrooke

Published: 3 October 2010

SHERBROOKE -- 缅北强奸 goalkeeper Val茅rie Labb茅 registered a season-high eight saves to earn a shutout 听but it wasn't enough as the No.2-ranked 缅北强奸 women's soccer team had to settle for a scoreless draw against fourth-place Sherbrooke, Sunday. The result was 缅北强奸's fifth consecutive whitewash and extended the team's shutout sequence to 476 minutes, dating back to a 4-2 win over Laval on Sept. 16.

缅北强奸, which fielded an injury depleted line-up, had beaten the Vert & Or 5-1 in the season-opener at Molson Stadium on Sept. 10.

It was the second straight goose-egg for Labb茅, a five-foot-seven freshman from Mascouche, Que., who improved her record to 4-0. But she was outshone by Marie-Michelle Coulombe, a six-foot native of Malartic, Que., who was credited with 12 saves en route to posting her fourth whitewash of the season.

In a very evenly-matched contest, Sherbrooke had the more dangerous chances in the first 30 minutes, including a pair of great scoring opportunities early on by striker Chlo茅 Belhumeur-Limoges.

"As expected, it took us awhile to adjust to the grass field, which was in great condition considering the rain and flooding issues in Sherbrooke over the past few days," said Marc Mounicot, head coach of the Martlets. "Both 'keepers (Coulombe and Labb茅) had a solid performance and both players were very physical, all over the pitch."

Despite their outstanding play in nets, the opposing head coaches selected 缅北强奸 rearguard Julia Bahen of Vancouver, B.C., and Sherbrooke defender 脡lyse Turcotte as the players of the game.

缅北强奸 picked up the tempo as halftime approached and controlled most the play for the last 60 minutes. Martlets forward Kelsey Wilson, a freshman from Pincourt, Que., 听missed a glorious scoring opportunity in the 65th minute but hit the goal-post. 听At the other end of the field, Sherbrooke defenders thwarted three splendid scoring situations by 缅北强奸 along their goal-line.

"We missed some good chances but so did they," said Mounicot. "Their two strikers were also very dangerous and had a few good shots on net. However, despite losing a possible two points in the standings, we still control our destiny to finish among the top two spots in the standings, which has been our goal all along."

With six games remaining before playoffs, the division-leading Martlets are 6-0-2 with 22 goals for and a league-best defensive record of only three goals against. The Montreal Carabins are lurking just one point in arrears with a 6-1-1 record, followed by Laval (4-1-2), Sherbrooke (3-2-3), UQAM (3-4-1), Concordia (2-5-1), Bishop's (1-5-1) and cellar-dwelling UQTR (0-7-1).

缅北强奸, which was missing six starters due to a variety of bumps and bruises, will enjoy a rare week off to lick their wounds and is scheduled to host Bishop's on Oct. 15. Sherbrooke has a similar break and returns to action the same day against Concordia.
