Conway Leads Newport Harbor

Carolyn Conway scored a goal in each of the first three quarters to lead Newport Harbor to a 6-3 nonleague victory Friday over Long Beach Wilson in a matchup of two of the top-five teams in the Southland.

Conway, a senior who has signed with Indiana, opened the scoring with her first goal. She broke a 2-2 tie and gave the Sailors a 3-2 halftime edge with her second goal. Her third score, with 5:44 left in the third period, gave Newport Harbor a 4-2 lead.

Anne Belden and Ashling Taylor also scored third-quarter goals for Newport Harbor (15-2), ranked No. 2 in the Southland by The Times.

“They’re a really physical, tough team. We haven’t played against that good of a press before,” said Newport Harbor assistant Jason Lynch.

Wilson (14-5), ranked No. 4, missed 13 of 16 shots. Newport Harbor attempted 15 shots.

“We kind of broke down a little bit in the third quarter because we were getting frustrated because our shots weren’t going,” said Wilson junior Lauren Silver, who leads the Bruins with 37 goals this season but was held scoreless and missed six shots Friday.
