ITHACA, N.Y. -- Junior goalkeeper Tori Christ made 11 saves, but Dartmouth spoiled the Big Red women's soccer team's Senior Day with a 3-0 victory on Saturday at blustery Berman Field.

The teams played to a scoreless draw through the opening 45 minutes before the Big Green pulled ahead just 66 seconds after the break on a stike by Chrissy Lozier. Tasha Wilkins converted a side-volley on an assist from Kelly Brait in the 66th minute, then Marina Moschitto wrapped up the scoring in the 84th minute with a perfect shot into an upper corner after the ball bounced around in the Cornell penalty area.

Despite the scoreline, Christ was solid on the back line on a difficult day with a slick surface and a stiff breeze. Dartmouth outshot Cornell, 31-7. Three of those Big Red shots were directed on cage by seniors Maneesha Chitanvis, Ali Barger and Hannah Labadie.

The Big Red honored its seven seniors with a presentation at halftime. Megan Crowell, Jayann Gabrio, Xandra Hompe, Moonie Mancho, Chitanvis, Barger and Labadie all wrapped up their Cornell soccer careers Saturday.

Cornell finished the season 1-14-1 overall and 0-6-1 in Ivy League play under first-year head coach Patrick Farmer.
