SEWARD, Neb. (UJ)– Aubree Gessel (SR/Temecula, Calif.) scored in the 14th minute, and the defense made it hold up as the University of Jamestown women’s soccer team defeated Concordia University 1-0 Saturday evening.

It was the seventh straight win for the Jimmies, now 8-4-1 overall and 7-0 in the GPAC. 

Gessel took a pass from Amber Somera (FR/Pearl City, Hawaii) and beat Bulldog keeper Kalie Ward for her second goal of the season.
