BELLEVILLE, Ont. – Cory Lapointe (Whitby, Ont.) led the Durham College women's soccer team with a pair of goals Friday night to lift the Lords to a 5-0 opening day victory over the Loyalist Lancers.

Jacklyn Brzezinski (Ajax, Ont.) scored her first OCAA goal in the 51^st minute.
 
Lapointe followed with the next two goals of the match in the 59^th and 76^th minutes to give her team a 4-0 lead.
 
Mya Beverley (Oshawa, Ont.) also scored her first career OCAA goal, closing out the Lords' scoring in the 90^th minute.
 
King finished with three saves in the clean sheet victory, while Bolch made 15 saves in the Lancers loss.
