OCAA IN THE KNOW: WOMEN'S SOCCER

STILL THE TEAMS TO BEAT

Last year's OCAA medalists are all perfect after their first regular season matches of 2014, all posting shutouts on the road.

Defending champion Algonquin traveled to Sudbury, Ont., and defeated host Cambrian 2-0.

Silver medalist Seneca rolled a seven in its opener, blanking Fleming 7-0 in Peterborough, Ont.

Bronze medalist Humber edged Fanshawe 1-0 in London, Ont.

Incidentally, Algonquin is ranked No. 2 in the initial CCAA national rankings.

DEUCES ARE WILD

Five players scored two times in a match this weekend.

In Seneca's victory, third-year players Cassandra Nicolodi (Toronto) and Emma Gattoni (Thornhill, Ont.) were one goal shy of a hat trick.

Cambrian bounced back from its loss to Algonquin with a 7-0 victory over Loyalist. Taylor Rocca (Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.), Tiffany Johnson (Sudbury, Ont.) and Courtney Ceccarelli (Sudbury, Ont.) all scored a pair of goals.

BOUNCE BACK

After both teams suffered 7-0 defeats in their openers, Fleming battled Loyalist to a 2-2 draw in their meeting on Tuesday.

Second-year forward Sonya Dronsfield (Nepean, Ont.) and first-year midfielder Hannah Healey (Corbyville, Ont.) scored for Loyalist. Second-year striker Ashley Gilbert (Peterborough, Ont.) and third-year defender Michelle Boyer (Balderson, Ont.) replied for Fleming.

SCORELESS IN KINGSTON

There were two other draws this weekend, including a scoreless encounter between the Durham Lords and St. Lawrence Vikings.

In Kitchener, Ont., St. Clair tied the Conestoga 1-1. First-year player Josie Makcrow (Cambridge, Ont.) scored for Conestoga, while third-year forward Nicole McKenzie (Belle River, Ont.) tallied the equalizer for St. Clair.
