Helen Theophilopoulas played well in goal during the first half for Exeter, a real switch from her usual • position at centre forward. The home squad played well against the wind in the first stanza but made the Hornets' goalkeeper look good by shooting right at her a number of times. Exeter shuffled positions in the second half, moving Theo- philopoulas up to the forward line while moving Rochelle Geoffries into the net. Exeter's two goals were both scored by Juanita Chappell on cor- ner kicks. Exeter was blanked 4-0 by host London City B last week.
