Rochester, Mich. - The Toledo women's soccer team (4-3-1) ended the non-conference portion of its schedule with a 1-0 road victory over Horizon League opponent Oakland (0-9-0) today. The Rockets' goal was scored by freshmen Ashton Cassel and it was her first of the year.
"Today's win was very important," Cassel said. "Conference play is coming up and we need to set ourselves up to continue winning."
The win comes following Toledo's back-to-back losses against Detroit Mercy (2-1, Sept. 6) and Illinois State (2-1, Sept. 14).
"We've had a lot of good opportunities in front of goal recently and it just hasn't been going our way," Buchholz said.
