The result was nothing new for the Patriots, who have now won nine contests by three goals or more so far this season.
They hit Brooke with a four-pronged attack, as the team got scores from
Brenna Tipton (3),
Julia Dunaway (3),
Katelyn Smith (2), and
Lauren Spears.
Wheeling Park pushed their record up to 15-4-1 with the victory, which was their ninth straight at home. As for Brooke, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 9-9-1.
Wheeling Park will head out on the road to take on Morgantown at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. One thing working in Wheeling Park's favor is that they have posted at least four goals in their last five matches. Brooke does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
