She opened the week by tallying both of the goals, including the game-winner with just 3:02 remaining, in TCNJ's key 2-1 NJAC road victory at William Paterson. In a 3-0 non-conference win over FDU-Florham, she helped the Lions post their fourth shutout of the season while limiting FDU to only six shots. Wooster is currently fifth in scoring on the Lions from her back position with eight points on three goals and two assists.
