Hawai'i-Hilo soccer earns second straight road victory

Advertiser Staff

Karen Weatherby scored two goals as the Hawai'i-Hilo women's soccer team shut out Mills College, 4-0, yesterday at Oakland, Calif.

It was the second consecutive road victory for the Vulcans (2-3), which beat Bethany, 5-2, at Scotts Valley, Calif., on Wednesday to earn the first win for the first-year program.

Ashley Warner scored off a crossing pass from Kelly White at the 20-minute mark, and White found Weatherby for another score just before halftime for a 2-0 UH-Hilo lead.

Weatherby scored off an assist from Tara Gregory in the 80th minute, and White scored her first goal of the season on a breakaway pass from Sophie Milam in the 88th minute.

In Wednesday's win over Bethany, Kehau Hagiwara scored one goal. Another player, Kehau Leite-Ah Yo, was incorrectly reported as the goal scorer.
