LANCASTER, Pa. – Two goals in a 24 second span proved to be the difference as Cabrini women's soccer team collected a 2-0 win at Franklin & Marshall. The Cavilers' (1-0) Sammy Thompson assisted on both goals feeding breakaways by freshmen Maddy Edwards and Alex Tralie late in the first period.

The Diplomats (0-1) had multiple opportunities in the second half outshooting Cabrini 5-2, but Gianni Porretta, who had six shutouts a year ago, was up to the task. Porretta (1-0) recorded six saves in the duration.

Save for a minute, Franklin & Marshall's freshmen laden team held their own. The Diplomats rolled out seven first-years for the season opener. One of the freshmen, keeper Katie Golding, stopped four shots in absorbing the loss.

The Diplomats return to action Sunday against Allegheny.
