CALDWELL, N.J. - The Caldwell College women's soccer team picked up a Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference victory with a 3-1 win over visiting Nyack College Tuesday afternoon at Caldwell Field. The win ends a two-game losing streak for the Cougars, who are now 5-5-1 overall and 5-2-1 in league play. The Warriors drop to 4-9, 4-4 CACC.

Caldwell struck first with a goal by freshman forward Natalie Migoya (Lincoln Park, NJ/Morris Catholic) off an assist from sophomore forward Julie Crankshaw (Lanoka Harbor, NJ/Lacey Twp.) in the 15th minute.
