Smith stars as Gaiters get boot
Ìý
LENNOXVILLE, Que. -- Sophomore midfielder Anna Smith of Somerville, Mass., scored a goal and set up two others as visiting McGill cruised to a 4-1 victory over Bishop's in women's soccer at Coulter Field, Friday.
Ìý
Adding singles for the winning side was senior Elizabeth Williams of Calgary, sophomore Alexandra Morin-Boucher of St. Gabriel de Brandon, Que., and Cristina DiCaprio, a senior from Laval, Que.

Becky Yates, playing in midfield for the first time in several weeks, scored the Gaiters' only goal in the 72nd minute. Katie Wallace picked up her third straight game MVP award, while Hannah Simmmons won similar honours for the Gaiters.

Shimone Slomowitz of West Vancouver, B.C., registered the victory in nets for McGill, which had a 20-5 advantage in shots directed toward the net. The Gaiters' Koula Trichas kicked aside eight of 12 shots faced in a losing cause.

"We had possession for more than 75 per cent of the game and should have been more lethal," said McGill head coach Marc Mounicot. "But the objective was to get three points (in the standings) and hope for a tie between Sherbrooke and Laval and that's exactly what happened."
Ìý
A 1-1 draw in that other contest gave the second-place Martlets a 9-3-1 record and a one point lead over Sherbrooke in the eight-team Quebec league, with one game left. Sherbrooke (8-2-3) will host cewllar-dwelling UQAM (1-10-2) on Sunday afternoon while McGill closes out their regular schedule with a road game at fifth-place UQTR (3-7-3).

The seventh-place Gaiters (3-9-1) close out the 2009 season on the road Sunday at the CEPSUM complex in Montreal as they face the first-place Carabins (11-1-1).
