WITH 2-1 OVERTIME VICTORY AGAINST CLARK IN CHAMPIONSHIP

	MEDFORD, Mass. --- Carlin Aloe, named tournament MVP, scored the game-
winning goal with 5:08 remaining in the second overtime to lift Wesleyan to a
2-1 victory over Clark University in the championship game of the 2000 ECAC
New England Division III tournament hosted by Tufts University this
afternoon.
	
This win, coupled with a 1-0 double-overtime win in the first round
against Conn. College and a 1-0 semi-final triumph over top-seeded and host
Tufts, allowed Wesleyan to defend the title it captured a year ago.  In 1999,
Wesleyan defeated Middlebury, Colby and Tufts en route to its first ECAC
title.  In the first two wins of the 2000 tournament, Laura Pfeiffenberger
scored the decisive goal and Taryn Hutchin-Cabibi posted a shutout in goal. 
The shutouts brought Hutchins-Cabibi's career total to 19, a Wesleyan team
record.  Pfeiffenberger ended the season with 10 goals, tying her with Jenna
Flateman, who netted the opening goal in the first half against Clark, for the
team lead.  Aloe closed out the year as the team's top point getter with 28 on
seven goals and a Wesleyan seasonal team record 14 assists.
	
Wesleyan also tied its team record for wins in a season as the team
posted a 13-5 mark.  Last year's squad closed out the campaign with a 13-4
record.
