You get the picture.

It's Wittenberg over 'Bears

By Jordan Garrison

The Ohio Northern women's soccer team wrapped up its 2012 non-conference schedule on Thursday with a 1-0 loss to Wittenberg at the ONU Soccer Field.

The Polar Bears fall to 6-4-3 on the season, while the Tigers are now 7-3-2.

The lone goal in the contest came with 37:17 gone in the first half when Kaylee Gialamas scored on a rebound of a shot put up by teammate Grace Winzeler.

Winzeler's shot bounced off the cross bar on a breakaway to set up the goal.

In the second half both teams played very well but neither was able to put the ball in the net.
