WILLIAMBURG, Va. - Senior defender Kim Newell (Woodbridge, VA) and junior Jordan Krieger (Park City, UT) tallied goals leading the No. 22 William & Mary women's soccer team to its fifth straight victory defeating American University, 2-0, Thursday night at Busch Field.

Tribe goalie Courtney Owen (Richmond, VA) made one save and tallied her fifth shutout of the season. American goalie Jackie Sierodzinski made 12 saves and faced 18 William & Mary shots.
