MARENGO – Alexa Torman’s hat trick helped Marengo build a big lead early, and the Indians held on to defeat Woodstock, 4-3, in a non-conference girls soccer match Tuesday.

Cassidy Grimschied added an unassisted score for Marengo, which led, 4-0, after the first half.

Goalkeeper Brittany Berrier had 10 saves.

“We gave up the ball a lot,” Indians coach Brandon Holton said. “I thought Woodstock outplayed us in terms of passing and holding on to the ball.”

Analleli Zarate, Katie Ruben and Teresa Arellano each scored for the Blue Streaks (1-1) in the second half.
