GAME SUMMARY: 

NORTH CAROLINA WESLEYAN CLAIMS REGIONAL CROWN WITH 2-0 WIN OVER DENISON

LYNCHBURG, Va. -- Freshman Shannon Becker (Durham, Pa.; Palisades) scored 
on a 40-yard free kick in the eighth minute of play to lead North Carolina 
Wesleyan to a 2-0 victory against Denison in the final of the NCAA 
Division III Women's Soccer Southeast Regional, Sunday at Shellenberger 
Field.  The victory improves the Battling Bishops' overall record to
17-1-4 and gives them a berth in the NCAA quarterfinals where they will 
meet the winner between Macalester and Chicago.

North Carolina Wesleyan took a 1-0 lead into halftime on Becker's game-
winner.  The Bishops then got an insurance goal from senior Alexa 
Kapetanakis (Raleigh, N.C.; Millbrook) when she passed Denison keeper Liz 
Clapacs (Euclid, Ohio; Hawken) on a one-on-one situation in the 75th 
minute.

NC Wesleyan keeper Jennifer Foreman (Stamford, Conn.; Wilton) posted her 
second shutout in as many days, collecting six saves in the process.  
Clapacs tallied five saves while giving up two goals.
