Gryphons score in injury time to top Warriors

Kaitlyn Barnett tallied the lone Warrior goal a losing effort
The women's soccer team's string of bad luck continued on Sunday in a heartbreaking 2-1 loss to the Guelph Gryphons at Warrior Field.  Forward Courtney Whiteside chipped in the game winning goal in injury time to hand Waterloo their fourth straight loss to open the season.

The opening half was all Guelph and they would be rewarded in the 40th minute as Erica Bain would take advantage of a mix up between netminder Lesia Bandura (Kitchener/) and her defenders to put the visiting side up 1-0.

Guleph would hold their lead into the second half before Kaitlyn Barnett (Kitchener/) would return from injury and finish off a goal mouth scramble to even the score.  The Warrior tally was set up after a perfect free kick put into the box by Adrienne Goldsworthy (Waterloo/).

The two teams would exchange chances down the stretch before Guelph would muster home the winning marker in the dying seconds of injury time.  Bain would be stopped point blank but Whiteside picked up the rebound and put it past a helpless Bandura and defender Kiersten Colbran (Sarnia/) who stepped in to help her goalie.

The loss puts Waterloo's record at 0-4 and the black and gold will look for their first win on the road next weekend in Oshawa when they face the UOIT Ridgebacks.
