COLLEGEVILLE, Pa – The Ursinus women's soccer team increased their win streak to three after defeating Bryn Mawr 3-0 Wednesday night at Patterson Field.

The Bears move to .500 (4-4-1) and still remain undefeated in the Centennial Conference with a record of 2-0-1.  Bryn Mawr drops to 4-6 and 0-3 in the Centennial.

In their three wins, the Bears have outscored their opponents, 6-1.

Offensively the Bears dominated firing 28 shots with 14 on goal while stifling the Owls to only three shots the entire game.

Ursinus opened the game with a corner from Valarie Bedrock that curved to the left post.  Bryn Mawr keeper Aviva Kosansky couldn't get a handle on the perfect kick when the ball grazed her gloves knocking it into the back of the net, the Bears taking a 1-0 lead in the 18^th minute of the contest.

At the 30^th minute Erin Farrell streaked down the sideline beating the defender and placed the ball into the middle of the box for Alexis Haug to get an easy goal to take a 2-0 lead into the half.

After battling back and forth, Ursinus third goal came in the 86^th minute when defender Katie O'Shea scored her first career goal. From thirty-five yards out O'Shea skied a ball to the far post, looking for someone to put it in, but the keeper couldn't reach it as the ball hit the back of the net.

The Bears three-game win streak is the longest since their five-game winning streak in 2010.

Ursinus will hope to continue their strong play Saturday afternoon at McDaniel.
