Senior backup Caitlin Wiltsie stepped in for injured starter Brittney Peet on Monday, making five saves to lift the Raiders to a 2-0 Tri-Valley League victory over visiting Worcester.

Terra Moore and Gabby Porter scored for G-MU (6-4 overall, 5-2 T-V), which handed the Wolverines (3-3-1) their first loss to a T-V team this season.

"There’s no controversy in goal," Harding said. "We’re pretty good in supporting each other."

[an error occurred while processing this directive]Wiltsie earned her second shutout this year in place of Peet, who sprained a thumb in a 2-1 loss at Schenevus on Sept. 12. G-MU followed with a three-game winning streak that started with a 3-0 defeat of host Franklin on Sept. 13.

Moore headed in the first goal off a Worcester defender with 1 minute, 14 seconds left in the first half. The opportunity started with a corner kick from Danny Porter. Twin sister Gabby then scored an insurance goal in the second half with a left-footed shot over the head of losing goalie Emily Bristol from inside the 18-yard line.

Worcester, which has shutout victories over Milford and Cherry Valley-Springfield this season, fell to 2-1-1 in league play.

The Raiders are at CV-S on Thursday.

"We didn’t play our best, and I’d hate to think if we played our best what it would have been," said Milford coach Lorin Campbell, who added Monday’s victory was his first at Edmeston in his 12 years of coaching. "This is the first time we played that poorly. Edmeston’s not a bad team and they come at you. They work hard, but we know how to score goals."

Brenna Campbell contributed a goal and two assists for the Wildcats (6-1, 3-1), who receive a goal from Julia Brennan and six saves from goalie Chynna Pitlock.

Davenport coach Ray Preston said he moved starting goalie Anabel Kugler to stopper to shadow Cella, who has an area-best 19 goals this season.

"I’ve been begging for a stopper and she just did a great, great job," Preston said of Kugler, who helped keep Margaretville to eight shots on goal. "Cella was on the far right side in the box and our keeper (Brittany Westcott) came out and missed it. Cella scored from an impossible angle. It hit the post and went in."

Katie Galatioto made seven saves in the shutout.
