The Shoreline CC Women's Soccer Team defeated Highline Community College on Wednesday at the Starfire Complex in Tukwila, WA 1-0 to advance to the quarter-finals of the NWAACC Women's Soccer Playoffs. SCC travels to Clackamas Community College on Saturday to play the Cougars at 7:00pm at the Oregon City High School Field.

Freshman Kayla Browne, from Monroe High School, scored for SCC in the 88th minute on an assist by Maria Reyes as HCC did not clear a SCC corner kick well and SCC jumped on the chance to score in the closing minutes.

SCC moved to 10-5-4 on the season while Highline dropped to 10-6-5 to end their season. The Dolphins now face the Southern Region Champions in Clackamas CC, but CCC is a team the Dolphins beat earlier in the season, 1-0, at Dolphin Field. CCC is 13-3-0 overall and feature the toughest defense in the NWAACC, allowing only 7 goals in 16 matches.

If SCC wins on Saturday they will advance to the NWAACC Final Four at the Starfire Complex next weekend.
