WEST CHESTER, Pa.- Adriana Ryder (Hamilton, N.J./Steinert) scored her second game-winning goal of the week and fourth of the season to help lead the 16^th-ranked West Chester University women's soccer team (13-1-1, 11-1-1) to a 2-0 victory over Shippensburg (4-9-3, 2-9-2) on Senior Day in West Chester on Saturday.

Prior to Saturday's game, West Chester honored its senior class, which included Grace Keen (Lincoln University, Pa./Avon Grove), Brielle Zink (Islip, N.Y./Islip), Carley Slavin (Abington, Pa./Abington), Kate Alexander (East Islip, N.Y./East Islip), Maddie Mosier (Hockessin, Del./Padua), Ryder, and Lauren Reimold (Chester Springs, Pa./Downingtown East).

Ryder's fifth goal of the season came in the 26^th minute when she took a shot from the top of the box off an assist from Kianna Barber (Browns Mills, N.J./BCIT) after the ball was played around in the box following a save on a shot by Ryder and a blocked chance by Barber moments earlier.

After carrying a 1-0 lead into the halftime break, West Chester added an insurance goal in the 81^st minute when Barber added a goal of her own, settling a bouncing ball as it came out of the box and blasting it past a leaping Kirstin Brown to give West Chester a 2-0 lead with under 10 minutes to play.

West Chester finished the game with a 28-3 lead in shots, a 12-0 lead in shots on goal, and a 7-0 lead in corners.

Keen wasn't asked to make a save Saturday afternoon but did an excellent job directing traffic as she picked up her 55^th career win and 35^th career shutout. Keen's 55^th win moves her into solo second place on the career wins chart, while her 35^th shutout matches Alex Srolis (2013-16) for first in career shutouts, a record she will have the chance to break on Wednesday in the regular-season finale against Kutztown.
