SPRING ARBOR, Mich. — Defending conference and national champion Spring Arbor ended Goshen College's women's soccer season with a 6-0 defeat Saturday afternoon at the Cougar Soccer Complex.

Morgan Marshall and Alyssa Joseph each scored twice for the Cougars (16-0-1), who opened the scoring on a Corrie Good strike after less than 11 minutes and doubled their lead on a Renee Brookhuizen goal with 11:00 left in the half.

Marshall added goals after 14:07 and 24:23 in the second stanza, while Joseph finished off the scoring with two tallies 3:37 apart in the final quarter-hour. Bethany Balcer finished with two assists for SAU, which has not lost to a Crossroads League opponent in regular-season or postseason play since 2012.

The best scoring chance for GC (6-10-3), which was playing in the Crossroads League tournament for the first time since 2007, came seconds after the midpoint of the first half when Carolina Villalobos had her shot saved by Cougar netminder Ashley Timmons, who combined with Allison Keizer to post the shutout.

Natalie Thorne paced Goshen with eight saves while Molly Zook made two in the final 17 minutes. Balcer led all players with six shots, one more than Aubrey Schierbeek.

SAU took all of the match's seven corner kicks and suffered 10 of the 17 fouls. The Cougars advance to meet fifth-seeded Indiana Wesleyan, which upended Grace 1-0 later Saturday, in next week's semifinal matchup.
