Oglethorpe opens with win at Wesleyan

MACON, Ga. - The Oglethorpe Stormy Petrels kicked off the 2024 season with a stellar 11-0 win over the Wesleyan Wolves, with returners and newcomers all pitching in. 
 
Freshman Caylin Loftin led with a hat trick, while Jade Anderson and Lily Burford scored twice apiece. Freshman Valentina Hurtado recorded two assists. 
 
Mackenzie Jones and Harlow Cregar scored the first two goals of the game around the 24-minute mark, assisting each other. Not even five minutes later, Loftin scored her first goal, and then another. With five minutes left on the clock in the first half, Burford boosted Oglethorpe's lead to 5-0. 
 
After halftime, Loftin quickly made her third goal followed by Emma Perkins, with Hurtado assisting on both. The Petrels were relentless, racking up six goals in the second half alone. Ultimately, Oglethorpe defeated Wesleyan 11-0, setting the stage for a successful season.
