After four seasons in college, two national titles and only four losses, the final game of Lauren Brown’s soccer career at Williams College came down penalty kicks in the driving rain against arch rival Middlebury.
Brown, who is originally from Shamong, N.J. and moved to Yardley, Pa. with her family when she started high school at Pennington School, was in line to take a kick but didn’t need to take a spot kick in the end. A save by goalkeeper Olivia Barnhill in the fifth round ended the game and made Brown a Division III national champion for the third time.
