Athena Dimario Done (Windsor; St. Joseph's) made 4 saves in the half while the Conestoga keeper made 5.

The second half was also played evenly by both teams. However, the Saints got the winning goal off of a free kick on a great shot by Jaclyn French (Windsor; FJ Brennan) in the 77th minute. St. Clair hung on for the rest of the game playing some great defense to secure the win.  Sydnie Lucier (Windsor; L'Essor) and Emma Riccardi (LaSalle; Sandwich Secondary) both had solid all around games for the St. Clair women.

The Saints are now 1-2-1 on the season and Conestoga dropped to 1-3-1. Conestoga was ranked 9th in Ontario heading into weekend action. The West Division standings are very tight early on with 6 more games remaining for St. Clair.
